The plane of former president and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump landed in Billings, Montana at 2:29 p.m. Mountain Time on Friday afternoon.
Photos and video sent in by a viewer show the plane land and taxi down the runway.
According to the Billings Airport, Trump's plane landed in Billings after a mechanical issue. He was expected to take a private plane from there to the Bozeman Airport. Secret Service is doing a complete sweep of the airport here before that takes place.
An individual familiar with the situation told Scripps News Helena that the second plane flew to the West Yellowstone Airport and landed around 4:00 p.m.
