Could you imagine doing a tune-up?

Don't you mean WAS a V-22?

I've had a few fly over the house... made me nerveous. The F-22's are way cool though.

Lol nice photo, we (marines) havent had a fatal crash in several years. I can't post from my phone, unless y'all have a suggestion it'll have to wait till I get back to the bricks this weekend.

Sorry bout that Hanky. They probably let some airdale USAF type fly that poor aircraft into the ground like that!

OOH RAH! (My Brother taught me that!) :D

No worries! We're having a great time flying, there's some saying about how once you've flown, you constantly look up at the sky waiting to get back up there. Lol that's a very rough paraphrase. Just got word that we get to do a static display tomorrow... Lol super excited about that.

Semper Fi Hanky but I'd still take working on 18's over that hybrid any day of the week.

I don't blame you, there's so many computers on this bird! 18s are pretty simple, lol a seat strapped to a rocket.

[cannonshooter]

Yet when I worked on 18's in the late 80's early 90's they were the state of art A/C where without computers the bird couldnt fly. Only mechanical linkage was for the horizontal stabilizer. Hard to think of them as primitive but I guess compared to the Osprey the avionics I worked are stone age now.
