Mr AEO, why so negative? This can only be positive news. There is a lot more to this than just plonking an Osprey on the deck. It will be an opportunity, to look at deck limits, wind limits, what sort of recovery/instrument profile it can fly, what stores support it will require, where the lashing points are, how to handle or manouevre one on the deck, shut down, impact on other aircraft, NVG capability/compatability, stores lift capacity. What mission system support it wil require...I could go on....
