Netflix will release "The Decoy Plane" on 4 September, an instalment of its Instadocs series examining how the White House secretly swapped out Donald Trump's aircraft as he left a NATO summit in Turkey in July. Trump was filmed boarding Air Force One but then left via a catering truck to another plane, while reporters remained aboard unaware he was no longer on the aircraft they were travelling on. The episode drew criticism when it emerged, with Trump accused of misleading journalists and putting them, along with White House staff, at risk.

The documentary features interviews with reporters who were on board, including the AP's chief White House photographer Alex Brandon and Reuters' Gram Slattery, who describe being told by staff to lower their window shades without explanation. It later emerged the ruse was prompted by threats against Trump from Iran; Trump had said he would leave Turkey on an older Air Force One rather than the Qatar-donated 747-8 he arrived on, but was instead taken to a military jet before being secretly reunited with the reporter-filled plane during a stop in Britain. The film is executive produced by Josh Tyrangiel, Connor Schell, Steve Yaccino, Libby Geist, Aaron Cohen and Alexa Conway, and produced by Words + Pictures.
