Bell Osprey - quick question...

Silly question, as the rotors are such a large diameter, how would it land if they stuck in the 'foward flight' position. I understand that if one engine failed the other one is capable of driving both rotors, what if there was a seizure of one rotor, how controlable would it be.
Recently saw this at an airshow...certainly looked a bit wierd...
