well if this Osprey works as well as you indicate, I'm sure that it'll be fine. I stand corrected.
just that I have some classmates and friends that are "Thunder Chickens" and would hate to have to go to any more funerals.

I've known 25 Marines personally that died in helicopter crashes so don't you dare try to lecture me on accident statistics
Type of aircraft # of Class-A mishaps during first five yearsCH-46E 44
from your source 44 CH-46s lost in the first five years of operation, one would think that you would rather your child didn't fly on such a tired old bird as the CH-46 instead of the MV-22
