Whistleblowers have been doing their best. This detailed account from a Marine shows how "the aircraft has many more ways of getting into trouble than...a conventional helicopter. Unfortunately all of these issues are the result of basic design features" https://t.co/Knajk6RWHn — PolitiTweet.org

The Marine Corps disclosed that it has had 15 mishaps with the Osprey involving the clutch. The safety issue, wrote https://t.co/U0FH7BKM2X, "has the potential to end in catastrophe." https://t.co/vem3CAk8ra — PolitiTweet.org

Because the Osprey is unsafe it spends half of its time grounded - the average mission capable rate is only 56% compared to 85% for the Black Hawk. The Osprey also costs nine times more per aircraft to operate and maintain than the Black Hawk. — PolitiTweet.org
