Yasotay:When you mentioned V280's engine position being easier than the V-22's were you referring to the tilting vs. non-tilting design, 'cause I've seen them worked on vertically and horizontally, or were you referring to the engines being closer to the ground, so being easier to get to? ThanksAbraham:Am not getting in the middle of the colorful exchange, but I can't resist this one little nit: Rockwell may not have had a track record on building aircraft, but North American Aviation, who had merged with Rockwell in 1967, built the B-1B and they had a wee bit of experience in the aircraft building game. (sometimes I can't help myself... :-[ )
