Well, it was a good landing but not "with skill" and they were being very cautious as they were descending, guess thats to be expected when there fairly new. However the people observing are way, way to close to them, one mechanical error and a lot of people would have died, just look at what happened already when an osprey destroyed a tree and the trees branches put 8 people in hospital, you think the americans would be more cautious with there own citizens aswell not just there new "toys".

What's pin point here? They've just landed, nothing to be excited about.

Really you can't blame him seeing that it can snap off tree branches with tornado force winds.

@n4120p I guess their carrying capacity with the speed and range would suit the setting up of bases perhaps. They are a beautiful piece of machinery.

@AussieVR4 don't have the range numbers at hand but I imagine the v22 has 2 or 3 fold the range of any helicopter .

@n4120p Do you know the range they have compared to helicopters? Thanks for the info.
