Flying over there is VERY hard on airframes because of the weather, sand, heat, etc and it really showed. You got it pretty spot on!

    @@idaemonplasmo Yea man. It was smashed...not sure why it crashed but the impact was so hard that one of the pilots' M4 barrels was bent to nearly 90°. They hit HARD...it was pretty crazy. RIP Didn't get any pics. Not only was it all sensitive in nature/classified, doing so would be disrespectful to the fallen. I'd still LOVE you to build me an I Osprey! I was kind of "roving IT support" when I was over there and was basically constantly traveling between all three of the southern provinces. A lot was done in C-130 but a LOT was via CH-53 and MV-22. The Osprey was always my favorite. Incredibly dangerous but SO cool and INSANELY powerful. Love them!! 😁

    Would be terrified to be a kit maker and see PLASMO has chosen one of my kits to build.

And even specific aircraft being unique due to service requirements, damage repair etc.
