YouTube Description
as posted by the channel►13 News Now interviewed Wisner Baum aviation attorney and senior partner Timothy Loranger (a Marine Corps veteran, former pilot and aircraft mechanic, ) about the military’s decision to keep the Osprey aircraft flying despite more than a dozen crashes, including the Nov. 29, 2023 crash in Japan. Loranger says a pause for the V22 could be in order. “I would hope that they are studying this aircraft, taking it apart, looking at alternative designs to try and make it as safe as possible.”
Loranger represents several families who lost military members (U.S. Marines) in the June 8, 2022 Osprey crash near Glamis, California. The families hired him to prepare a product liability claim against the manufacturer, Bell-Boeing, for any mechanical defects that caused the Osprey to crash. The military investigation determined in July 2023 that the 2022 crash was caused by a catastrophic mechanical failure, a dual hard clutch engagement (HCE) which created a Single Engine and Interconnect Drive System (Single Engine/ICDS) failure, resulting in a catastrophic loss of thrust in the right-hand (RH) proprotor but they don’t know why the system failed.
