Remember how much money they poured into the Cheyenne before they finally determined that the thing just didn't fly that well? Look at the lines on this butt-ugly aircraft -- if good lines make for good aerodynamics, then it's wonder this pig ever got off the ground. Scuttle this whole program and try and LEARN from the experience!

several people had to visit a hospital here in staten island about a month ago when a V-22 demonstration brought limbs of a tree crashing down on people in a local park

I can see how the dust would be a bitch to run out into, but its not a reason not to use the Osprey in combat. My question is; Has it ever been used in combat operations yet?

o look portable smoke screen

The discovery channel just had an episode dedicated to the V-22 today and multiple re-runs throughout the week. Good source of information for all interested parties. It also discusses the techniques that the armed forces are using to deal with the localized dust storms produced by the rotor down wash.

The AV-8B had similar hover and S/VTOVL issues when it was first being developed.
-
The V-22 was unsafe initially, because of VRS and insufficient maintenance, but the USMC asked for permission to take control of maintenance procedures. When they did, and when VRS procedures were corrected, there was no further trend.
For those of you still calling the V-22 a death trap, you're ignorant. Look up Vortex Ring State and you'll see how it's resolved.

V-22s are doing safe "milk runs" so as to not get shot down. Same tactic the Army Stryker truck racketeers use to keep them from being incinerated.
