N550GP is a Gulfstream G550 with serial number 5173 registered to N550GP, LCC. This aircraft's old designation was N212JE (note the matching serial number) and was previously owned by Jeffrey Epstein (note the last two letters of the tail number). The registration history shows it was owned by Epstein's Plan D, LLC in the US Virgin Islands before being transferred to N550GP, LLC in February 2021. The tail number was subsequently changed to N550GP in July 2021.

The plane currently appears to be operated for charter by Threshold Aviation Group, suggesting this could be an enormous coincidence. When its livery was updated with "Trump 2024" branding is unclear. According to Flight Aware (screenshot), it was dispatched to Bozeman, MT on Friday, presumably after Trump's personal plane experienced mechanical issues. The plane's route aligns with Trump's high-profile fundraising events on Saturday in Jackson Hole and Aspen with fossil fuel tycoons and investment executives.

Note: Tail numbers can be reused, but only a single aircraft can be registered with a specific tail number at any given time. Aircraft manufacturer serial numbers do not change. Epstein originally had his Gulfstream IV (S/N 1085) registered by JEGE, LLC at N212JE before replacing it with the Gulfstream G550 (S/N 5173) and moving the Gulfstream IV to N120JE.

Edit: Compare photos of the plane from The Daily Mail with the photos used by Threshold Aviation Group.

Edit Edit: Here's another photo of the plane published by local newspaper Aspen Daily News.
