Lurve that camo.  Is that black or a very dark chocolate brown?  Either would work IMO.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

It's got me thinking about the camo for my solo Babs.  Sky, chocolate and a mid blue over a light gull grey underside...
Or maybe wrap the sky round?

Oooh, I like that.

I once spent a night drinking with bloke who had flown choppers to North Sea oil rigs.  He told me it was, in his opinion safer than flying into Berlin during the cold war.

That doesn't actually say that much for North Sea helicopter safety really  :rolleyes:

Captain Canada,

That's actually one of the original points Bell used in selling the concept.  A goodly chunk of their business came from providing helos for oil platform service work.  And a tilt-rotor would've been much appreciated in that role.  This, in addition to its military applications.

They were also pushing tilt-rotors for inter-city commuter work.  The idea being that they'd be about as fast as commuter jets / turbo-props but able to get passengers right into downtowns like helicopters could - but faster than helos and with a lot less per flight hour maintenance.

Mind you, Bell was pushing this back in the early 90s and they've yet to sell an Osprey in the civilian market.

But then, how much of that could be down to US DoD reluctance?
