  • @lukeyboymufc1990

    NEGATIVE... wont be considered a helo.

  • @dbrfreak oh,well thats good to hear the pilot is ok. : )

  • The future of helicopter aviation is right here..

  • @Andy50k1 My understanding is that one of the two stability gyros was wired in backwards so the flight computer got conflicting data. Also, the pilots walked away from the crash.

  • engine failur it seems...hmm.

  • @MrHuffmeister yes. it is amazing what one can accomplish by simply throwing trainloads of cash at companies, no matter how miserably their products perform or how many servicemen die to make CEOs and shareholders rich, until the POS finally manages to work. Imagine calling Ford and ordering an f-150 for $40k. What shows up cannot drive a block w/o exploding and killing nearby school children and bunnies. No problem, says ford, just send us $65k...we've fixed that. and so on, and so on.

  • The V-22s have come a long way, they used to be the one aircraft no one wanted to fly or even be in. You were crazy to be part of the aircrew. But theyve worked out the big problems giving it a bad name. Nowadays, they have less "incidents" than most of the other aircraft per 100,000 flight hours. Today, the one with the issues is the new F-35B JSF, the version that hovers, the issues with the forward gearbox for the giant fan will keep the jet from reaching the military until like 2024 now. :(

  • Yeah well its only 67 million dollars each. Say goodbye to your tax moneys.

  • @jjooell Succes doesnt always happen the first time lol.Theres about 7 of them here at Kirtland AFB in New Mexico.Their pretty awesome to see flying around,Hasnt been one crash or accedint since they've been stationed here, their very well mantained.Everytime you drive by there hangars the mechanics are always workin.

  • The balls of the pilot were weighing it down.
