The Osprey is my favorite aircraft.

I look forward to this set of photos every month, and it is never a disappointment!
Those photos are fantastic.
While the idea of the osprey is cool, it is a very poor design when put into practice. It has killed many service members through failures and shotty designs. Its most likely some Generals pet project that he pushed through.
