It wasn't my squadron, we had other things on the schedule tonight.

They also claim everything else in the world.
We won't know what happened for a long time. The CV-22's fly for special ops command, I'm sure whatever they were doing isn't for public consumption.

Typical blah blah blah.
1 sentence about what happened, a whole page of the same liberal it costs too much, it almost got cancelled, etc.
I love the obligatory media comment "takes off like a helicopter, but flies like an airplane." You get that one in every V-22 article.
I wouldn't hold credible any source that identifies a military aircraft as a "chopper."
