Brow was doing what he was instructed to do

Incorrect. Brow violated both NATOPS and his training during that flight. I suggest you read the after accident report and the FDR data which proves that Brow screwed up and killed 18 other Marines and himself.

however, do you have a clue who the December crash pilot was? Why don't you pick on him, or was he your good ole buddy?

Sure do. Keith M. Sweaney and Michael L. Murphy were the pilots of the mishap aircraft which crashed near New River in December of 2000. If you've paid attention to all the Osprey threads on this forum you'd know that I've repeatedly pointed out that their mistakes in attempting to reset the FCS and not immediately landing when the FCS failed to reset, as they were trained and the NATOPS instructs, were contributing factors to the crash. Sweaney and Murphy were both experienced pilots but they made mistakes that cost them and two other Marines their lives. Ever hear the saying "There are old pilots and there are bold pilots but there are no old, bold pilots"? Are you related in any way to John Brow?

Nothing I say or do is incorrect you jerk!!!! Did I read the accident report, P-lease!!!!!!!!! Have you read the autopsy report - not hardly!!!! Did your son burn up in the Osprey, NOT! By the way, do you have the Coyle report?? about 300 pages worth - I doubt that too. YOu don't have a clue.
