Bob,

How much different to your description would be that of the Chinook? Yet there is much defence and postulation about how the Chook would be a better spend than the V22

It would behoove you to take a rational look at some of your posts, and compare them to the reasonable responses of mckpave. Who at least has experience of what he speaks when it comes to the V22, unlike yourself and some others here
