The same aircraft, on a cloudy day landing at palo alto airport, California.

I got to say hi to an airplane I haven't photographed in a while this last weekend. This twin diamond was one of the few aircraft i photographed with my most short lived crop sensor setup, a Canon 60D and 75-300 lens back in 2023. The newer photo was taken on an R6mkii and 70-200 2.8.
