Greg Gianforte
Greg Gianforte's Pilatus PC-12/47E (N1247E) was tracked departing Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport on June 26 and arriving at Maddalena Airport in Miles City 2 hours and 39 minutes later. The flight lands in Miles City on a Thursday, the same week the governor addressed the Montana State VFW's 104th Annual Convention there on June 18, per the Miles City Star.
If aboard, Greg Gianforte would be extending his 56 County Tour, a recurring circuit the governor uses to highlight rural investments, agricultural producers, and emergency-response infrastructure. State newsroom reports from this week document Gianforte visiting small businesses, battery storage facilities, and farms across the Hi-Line and central Montana, with Miles City serving as a key stop for veteran-focused events.
The flight pattern is consistent with Gianforte's practice of personally funding his travel via N1247E, which he uses in lieu of state aircraft. No prior flights have been logged for this tail number in the tracking window, but the timing aligns squarely with the public schedule of Montana's 25th governor.
