Good to hear that they were rescued relatively intact.

If you ever see a military guy in an orange flightsuit, offer to buy him a beer. Truly some of the bravest men and women in our armed forces.

Sounds like super-strong work done by the Osprey Wings crew to make the area ready for the extraction.

Well done guys.

If any of us were in that situation, we should count ourselves lucky to have events unfolded so well after the crash.

Pictures here. I'd say Henry did a great job of putting it down in bad terrain. A quick helicopter trip to the road and she'll be flying again in no time. I imagine the Corvette conversion doesn't work too well without electrical power.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you!
