This is Aircraft 01 (163911). This took place on the 19th of March 1989 in Arlington Texas. The V-22 Osprey is a Tiltrotor Aircraft that combines the Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) capabilities of a helicopter with the speed, range, and service ceiling of a turboprop airplane. The aircraft has twin engines, twin proprotors, a high wing, and a twin tail design with retractable landing gear. The aircraft has a standard crew of three: the pilot, co-pilot, and crew chief. The maximum Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) gorss weight is 52,600 pounds. The maximum Short Takeoff and Landing weight (STOL) is 57,000 pounds. The maximum alternate takeoff gross weight is 60,500 pounds. The proprotor system and airframe are primarily constructed of graphite-epoxy and fiberglass composite materials. The wing has a 3.5-degree dihedral and a 6-degree forward sweep. The V-22 is powered by two 6150 shaft-horse power AE 1107C turboshaft engines that are located in the nacelles. Each engine drives a 38.08 foot diameter 3-bladed proprotor. The proprotors provide lift in helicopter mode, and thrust in airplane mode. Interconnecting driveshafts maintain synchronization of the proprotors and provides single engine power to both rotors in the event of an engine failure. The V-22 is a multi-mission aircraft that can be configured for personnel and/or cargo. Roles and missions inculde, but are not limited to: Medium Lift Assault Support. Tactical Recovery of Aircraft and Personnel (TRAP). Search and Rescue. Fleet Logistics/Carrier Onboard Delivery (COD). Emergency Evacuation, Medevac, and Special Operations.
