A Boeing 737-700 carrying the running mate of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump skidded off a wet runway after landing at LaGuardia Airport in New York late on 27 October.
The Eastern Airlines-operated charter flight came to a stop on the grass beyond the runway, according to local reports.
Immediately after the incident, LaGuardia confirmed all air traffic was suspended "due to an airport emergency.” Aircraft have subsequently started using runway 13.
Mike Pence, Trump’s running mate and the governor of Indiana, and his traveling entourage were unharmed in the incident, news reports say.
Live video at the scene suggests the aircraft was stopped by an engineered material arrestor system, which is designed to stop aircraft moving up to 80mph after exiting a runway.
The 737-700 involved in the incident is registered as N278EA. The 18-year-old aircraft is owned by Willis Lease Finance. It is one of five aircraft operated by Miami-based Eastern Airlines, but the only 737-700. The other four are 737-800s.
