Had a V-22 Osprey land next to our hanger... (pics included) - Blu-ray Forum

dk3dknight · 06-17-2009, 06:55 PM

My boss called me out and we had a group of V-22 Osprey land next to our hanger I combined the pictures my boss took with mine uploaded them to flick and have provided them below.

Pretty cool to see one upclose. Mine were shot at either 1024x768, or 768x1024, my bosses are shot at 600x480, enoy.

Oh noes.. they actually didn't stay long, they put them on apu's refueled and they left, this location is a airport.. and our non flying airline probably scared them off.

But it was really cool hope yall like the pictures.

It's a great step for the USMC. I haven't seen one up close yet.

They will always remind me of the aircraft from Resistance.

Cool, looks like DFW terminal.

Well I guess its good to see they landed and took off again. I still wouldn't want to be in one though.

If I had only not needed to delete some pictures I would have taken some with them still in the air..

Looked nice..

They are still making these? I'd figure with all the problems during testing and development the project would have been scraped.

I want to see an A10 up close. That's my favorite plane ever made.

Actually the project went on and many more billions of dollars invested and its being used in Iraq supposedly, even the president used it to tour Iraq...

I would also like to see a A-10 up close as that is my favorite plane ever made as well.

Are you my evil lost brother..

LOL are you serious? They've served 4 tours already in one of the most aircraft unfriendly locations in the world with better than average mission readiness - especially when compared to other brand new platforms...they've provided SAR in the states to places helos only dream of getting to and they've provided humanitarian aide in places like Honduras. They can get to anywhere in theater AND back w/o refueling (a capability I'd like to see any other helo try to undertake). And, yes, they are the VIP transport of choice. They can't be produced fast enough. But don't take my word for it...google it. The naysayers have always been and always will be...wrong.

If you make it to any Air Force air show, they usually bring in a Warthog for a firepower demo.

That is one scary-ass bird.
