It looks like us tax payers supported lots of R&D for this POS. How many young, brave, dead Marines now? 50?
With nearly 4,000 hours in helicopters, the Osprey was one I would have refused to fly.
lololol - Pardon my mirth - I didn't realize you would have that capability.
The civilian tilt-rotor is dead. Even if a company could get insurance on one, no one would want to ride in it. There are simply too many better options.
This is really beginning to be a crisis. Just yesterday [6-9-22] another Osprey crashed in the same general area.. According to what I am reading, both Ospreys were based at Camp Pendleton. I thought they may have been based at Miramar since I see them fly over my house several times a day on the way to Miramar. Rest in peace to those who lost their lives, and condolences to their families.
Leave the military flying to the Air Force. If it weren’t for the marines the F35 would’ve been activated years earlier. Yep, they insisted on VTOL and the F35 program quickly turned into what you know it as today.
