Burt Rutan and Scaled Composite's latest 'mothership', White Knight Two, was spotted returning to Mojave airport this past Saturday, from a flight to New Mexico. Spectators at the airport's monthly 'Plane Crazy' static display were treated to a low altitude flyby and also got to see the plane closeup as it taxied back to the hangar. A minor mechanical issue forced them to stop over at Mesa-Gateway airport in Chandler, Az. An attempt was made to 'discourage' photographers at Gateway from taking photos of the aircraft, however nothing legally could be done as long as people stayed out of the airport's secured areas.
