Just like Beggar's Canyon back home...



It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

The Bell V280 keeps the motors fixed, and swivels the rotors, while the Osprey swivels the whole enchilada.

Is this a noise signature issue, at least partly?
An Osprey flew into Van Nuys a little while ago, and it was making quite a racket.
Led me to wonder.

It's a giant ballache to make that big of a design change.

Anyone got teh 411?

I (carefully) googled bambi bucket, really neat stuff.

They go from small to ginormous, how big a bucket do you guys use?

Had no idea they could lift so much.
