Magoo,

In a few weeks time, a V-22 will arrive at RAF Boscombe Down for trials and evaluation and will, aswell as being at Boscombe Down AFFTC be also at RNAS Yeovilton for further evaluation for Carrier Deck Trials on the new Royal Navy Carriers that are to be built.

RAF and Royal Navy are both looking at the plane/helo and so both are evaluating. After a few weeks at both bases it will appear at the Royal International Air Tattoo and Farnborough SBAC Show then bugger off back to CONUS inside a C-5.

Seeing as i saw the EH101 Merlin and WAH-64D Longbow Apache being tested OVER MY HOUSE at 60ft i expect i will see the V-22 Osprey doing the same....if so, i'll try and get some photos.

Richard
