Couldn't help but notice the aircrew wearing their flight suit with sleeve unstrapped and flight gloves inside. Brought back memories of being lectured about fire protection (sleeves strapped snug w/ gloves over the top not exposing any skin), "it's nomex for a reason rookie".
I'm surprised to see them landing that close to the edge of the deck unless there's a clear operational benefit for doing so. Aside from tangling a wheel on the railing or getting one over the edge, I imagine the lift from the two rotors will not be the same because on one side the downwash is bouncing back off the deck, and on the other it's just going down the side of the ship. Or maybe that's why they're practicing, duh.
I was thinking that. I'm no expert but...I reckon they practice that because on the amphibious assault ships they would want to land as far away from the tower as possible so they practice close to the edge of the flight deck even tho they don't need to on this ship
That ship had acres of space: most assault ships have much less space and they land side by side - so they gotta be able to land within a couple of feet (few inches is normal) of the marked spot. Its like parallel parking a car - you might as well learn to park close to the kerb, cos its better than the alternative.
@@ur_quainmaster7901 A problem that was bound to happen. No other aircraft in the world has this range, speed & hovering capability. Which why the US Military is busy arming up this Aircraft. There are plans in the works. To make these into mini gunships/
Wonder if they could do an arrester wire landing with the propeller's at 45deg. Would mean they could land in stormy seas, on a ship that is rolling heavily
Robert Willis An arrester wouldn’t control that; better to just practice heavy seas landing and do it without having anything to snag on (in case of a quick get away to avoid slamming the rotors into any kind of structure).

Ospry is a badass transport airocopter! Seems like it would be used more across all branches. Marines were smart buying these. Unlike the navy's consistent delayed and over budgeted new class of subs , the $25 bill for just 3 Nimitz that are expensive floating weapon system research labs.or the counties issues they've had with the ford class carrier.
Anyone has any idea why they dont use chinooks instead? And how this is better? I mean i love it for its aesthetics it looks like something from avatar or halo. but for carriers wouldnt it be more practical to use something that doesnt have wings like a chinook?
The Osprey's main advantage is the ability to get to APLN mode and traverse much farther distances then any helicopter can. Operating from a ship is just part of Naval Aviation. The V-22 is a comprise, it's not a great helicopter and it's not a great airplane, but it can do the job of both. We don't design an aircraft to be great at landing on a ship. We design with a particular goal in mind and then make the shipboard operations work.
Norman McKinnon There WERE problems in the early days of the programme, but they made the investment and have been rewarded with a versatile platform. Time will tell whether its got the lifespan, but I assume they enginurded the hell out of it; I cant imagine the torque going through the turbine shafts to shift that rotor.
Originally a very difficult platform to fly totally unlike any other rotary aircraft might have been rushed too quickly now avionics advanced to address short comings awesome platform

Been watching the ospreys since it got voted on to become what it is today. Many a brave souls have died for this machine.
These Marines are just total “BADASS”

I'm shipping to Navy bootcamp in less than 2 months. I can't wait.
Good luck man. Thanks for your service.

Remember, NAVY stands for Never Again Volunteer Yourself.

Just finished listening to a Fighter Pilot Podcast about V-22 Osprey, and this video showed up!
Nice!

I noticed that too and had the same thoughts.I know these guys are excellent pilots,but there's not much margin for error there!

Dan Patterson every aircraft on navy ships land in specific spots, and the traffic control man have to be precise with every move they make

I’d love to do that! Thank you for bringing us this
we all dislike that neighbor who park this thing in their driveway... it’s too noisy and let alone sometime takes all the street parking available 😓
Captain, here comes The Hulk Drone
Do these pilots have any civilian aircraft to continue on?
Peters Right but, Soon they will, it’s called the AW609 and it’s pretty cool.
They log fixed wing turbine time and some turbine rotorcraft time in their log books.

MY EYESSSSSSSSS
Must be a stressful job knowing a gust of wind could send those rotors your way very quickly
nope
Dang! Those blades make me nervous!😃
Timothy Quick must be aircrew huh.🤮
I want one of them !
nobody:
her: come over
me: 1:37
2:52 looks cool
You’re welcome!!!!
Interesting how they appear to deliberately get surface effect under only one rotor, not both. Is that typical for gator operations with the CV-22?
Is that a converted freighter into a helo carrier?!?

Sick machine....what would we do without engineers?
I designed the system that allows it to hover over a moving ship. Wonderful plane.
that's a MARINE CORPS bird !
The mission capabilities of the V-22. On a flat-top like this, are endless. The question would be. What can't they do with this set up?
Fly into a distant, hot LZ because they have no escort with similar range/speed.

Can the Osprey land by arrester wire?
@G8M8N8
You can’t land the Osprey horizontally. The blades would hit the ship/ground. Arrestor wire inapplicable.
Wonder if they could do an arrester wire landing with the propeller's at 45deg. Would mean they could land in stormy seas, on a ship that is rolling heavily
Robert Willis An arrester wouldn’t control that; better to just practice heavy seas landing and do it without having anything to snag on (in case of a quick get away to avoid slamming the rotors into any kind of structure).
What is the benefit of the Osprey vs. a helicopter?
Twice the range, almost twice the speed, more stable and easier to pilot than a helicopter.

Thank you very much for the reply. Exactly the info I was looking for.
Does the Air Force fly these? Or just the Marines?
some not many though

probably has something to do with branch specification considering chinook is used by army only

I've read that these Osprey Aircraft are extremely hazardous. There has been many accidents & Fatalities.

Saw 3 of those the other day flying low over south Florida with no markings.
