Photo Comment

The Twin Star called the tower that they had an unsafe gear warning and they requested a fly-by so the tower could visually check their gear. REDSKIN15, who was in the neighborhood due to a large military exercise, also heard their call and offered to inspect the gear by flying next to them. Of course a yes was the result and so it happened that they met up overhead the field, which was a very nice sight. I imagine this was quite the experience for the DA42 crew, but also a nice change of scenery for the Apache crew. Unfortunately a very hastily taken photo due to lack of time.
