“Crashes happen. You won’t find me voluntarily flying on a helicopter or a tilt-rotor aircraft.”
SAME for me. & I learned to fly before I could drive a car. Father a pilot, uncle Navy pilot & instructor, 2 sons are pilots, one a Navy helo pilot.
Fixed wing only. Usually some chance of putting it down with most mechanical failures.......
Fixed wing? For sure.
The great explanation on YouTube illustrated the engine to rotor power path and there are many points where failure of the part depends on a transition to be powered by the remaining engine.
There are too many places where the possible failure means loss of controlled flight.
I never was comfortable in an aircraft where the “wings,” are beating above your head.
Also, no mention of the capability to autorotate, until the last part of the piece.
Did the Osprey have a “glide capability?” No mention, so, possibly not.
30 years in the Air Force and I just had my first helo ride 2 weeks ago at the Grand Canyon. Not a real fan.
