If the General is correct when he states it appeared "BOTH" engines were trying to restart.....would the aircraft have been able to fly the actual flight path flown?

Any of you Osprey guys want to discuss that? Does the evidence lend itself to supporting that kind of engine failure(s)?

This is a no win situation for the Osprey folks....either it is admit a mechanical problem with the machine or a failure by the crew. Neither of which is pleasant to consider.

Is the Air Force pulling the rug out from under the crew and protecting the machine?

If there is no clear cut evidence to prove either of the conclusions...why can they not just say that and explain why that is the best answer rather than doing as they have done?
