Those tilt-rotors have been touchy from the get-go.

And despite the Osprey’s negative reputation, you won’t find its incident record as a dangerous outlier in service-wide or branch-specific data. As Marine Maj. Jorge Hernandez, spokesman for Marine aviation, explained to the Military Times in a July e-mail, the Marine Corps’ MV-22 Osprey has a lower mishap rate per 100,000 flight hours than the Harrier, Super Hornet, F-35B, or CH-53E Super Stallion.

I know it got a very bad reputation early on with several very high profile crashes that were traced to a condition called vortex ring state, but overall the V-22 has proven to be no more dangerous than other military aircraft in general.

I was suprised to see that the Army chose a tilt-rotor to replace the Black Hawk.
