The Trump Organization unveiled a Boeing 737 to fly running mate JD Vance along the campaign trail

• The Trump Organization unveiled a private plane to fly running mate JD Vance.
• The leased Boeing 737 was emblazoned with the words 'Trump' and 'Vance' on the fuselage.
• Jet-tracking wiz Jack Sweeney identified the jet as N917XA, operated by Eastern Air Express.

Just hours after Donald Trump selected JD Vance as his 2024 running mate, the Trump Organization unveiled the Boeing plane that will fly the VP candidate along the campaign trail.

The plane features a full red, white, and blue livery, complete with a US flag on the tail and "Trump Force 47" written on the engine. The names "Trump" and "Vance" and the slogan "Make America Great Again!" are painted in big letters on the fuselage.

Internet sleuths, including jet-tracking wiz Jack Sweeney, have identified the plane as a 737-800 variant.

Based on context clues, including the "917" matching the gear door number in Miller's posted photo and the "Eastern" logo on the lift in Scavino's, Sweeney believes the plane to be operated by charter company Eastern Air Express and registered as N917XA.

Planespotters data shows the 22-year-old 737 flew for passenger charter and cargo carrier iAero but was put in storage in Kansas City and transferred to Eastern after iAero's bankruptcy in April.

It's unclear if the interior will be that of a VIP business jet or have a regular passenger configuration.

The 737 likely to carry Vance around the nation will complement the gold-plated "Trump Force One," a Boeing 757 Trump acquired in 2011 and flaunts at his rallies.

The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to a request for confirmation or comment.

Presidential candidates regularly use Boeing planes to jet city-to-city, including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, for their 2020 campaign travels. According to Forbes, the pair also chartered a 737, as did former Vice President Mike Pence in 2016.

The Bush/Cheney and the Obama/Biden campaigns both used the 757, for example, while the McCain/Palin and the Clinton/Kaine campaigns traveled on 737s.

The Romney/Ryan campaign ditched a Boeing-made plane for a McDonnell Douglas MD-80 series aircraft, though it was still a US-made jet.
