Trash-hauling in Afghanistan.

Gee, weren't those CV-22s supposed to be doing this work by now? According to Springbored, the V-22 is such a good platform that the Israelis have changed their minds and told the DoD they don't want them.

Just to clarify, the Osprey is a Marines bird, not an Army bird. Because only Jarheads would be stupid enough to fly in such a deathtrap ;). (Well, that and the fact that the Army is prohibited from flying fixed-wing aircraft, and the Osprey might arguably be considered a fixed wing aircraft).

The Osprey is so weird the FAA had to make up a new category for it. It is the one-and-only "powered lift" category aircraft. ( The others are: Airplane, Rotorcraft, Glider, Lighter-Than-Air, Powered parachute, and Weight-shift-control.)

It is definitely proof that with enough power you can make anything fly, and build an aircraft even less attractive to me than helicopters.
