Re: Osprey
Gutted I missed it, never seen an Osprey before.. Hopefully with the 3 being at Leuchars there may hopefully be another chance..........
Re: Osprey

Re: Osprey
Certainly did put the miles in yesterday then.
Re: Osprey
It only stayed at EDI for 15mins
Re: Osprey
Just out of interest & curiosity did it make an approach for Runway 06 or arrive from the South like a Helicopter and when it departed did it depart from the Runway like a Plane or go directly North like a Helicopter?
Re: Osprey
In from the south conventional for a short approach Rwy06 and transitioned to vertical-nacelle position on final as is standard, for takeoff I'm not aware if it did a rolling departure but an Osprey can not take off or land conventionally. They transition between conventional and VTOL just before or just after they touch or leave the ground.
Re: Osprey
Ok cheerz unfortunately was having an early night & my scanner was battery charging so I never really knew it was around. Hope to see one, someday.
