Actually technically not correct. There is no such plane as "Air Force One." It is the call sign used by whatever Air Force aircraft is carrying the current president.

There are two large (identical) aircraft in the presidential aircraft pool that typically operate as Air Force One. (The pool also includes a variety of other passenger and cargo aircraft.) But, if the president travels aboard any other Air Force aircraft, it would also carry the designation "Air Force One."

So, the correct statement above would be that Trump was sending a plane from the presidential aircraft pool to carry the body.
