Former United States President Donald Trump’s aircraft, known as Trump Force One, reportedly had to execute an unscheduled landing in Billings, Montana due to an emergency.

According to reports, the situation occurred when Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, was heading to his rally in Bozeman on Friday.

The plane was scheduled to land in Bozeman, Mont., where his Friday evening rally is slated to take place, but instead landed in Billings.

However, the situation was said to be immediately put under control as Trump reportedly took another plane to Bozeman. The two cities are more than 100 miles apart.

There were no reported injuries, and the former president released a video on Truth Social, informing the public of his arrival in Montana. However, he did not make any mention of the mechanical issue or emergency landing.

“I just landed in a really beautiful place, Montana, beautiful flying over, you just look down and that’s the way it’s supposed to be,” Trump said.

Trump is expected to continue with his campaign as he battles Vice President Kamala Harris in a fierce presidential race.
