I don't think it's a Musketeer, It looks like a Warrior II to me. But

Even the right oleo on the Stinson doesn't look much more compressed
than it would in a heavy landing. Not bad for a 60 year old aircraft.
Keep your eyes open and look around outside the cockpit.

Yep interesting how ownership clouds the perception, ignoring the fact
that the lower aircraft is holding the whole show up!
Reminds me of the morning at Archerfield in the early 60s when just
after touchdown in a C150 a Tripacer flew directly over the top with
very little to spare. Luckily he was not also practicing precautionary
landings and aiming to landing short.
