Wow, not a single wheel on the MV-22 touching paint...sucks to choke on camera!!!
Click to expand...

Top Ten excuses....

1. The LSE directed me to touch down slightly left to preserve nonskid....

2. Hey, FAM flight for the ACE with him at controls, why not take it up with him?

3. The ship was in a turn, yeah, that's the ticket!

4. Is that what those markings are for?

5. Your turn to fill in the excuse

-Funding for special MV-22 landing spot paint was cut by 30%.

-Testing wheel strength vs. scupper.

-I was too focused on how I'm going to make my "I'm on a Boat" video.

-Screw you guys, I was over the horizon. Yut yut!

6. F--- all y'all

7. It's a bitch to paint all the wheels because it gets squirellier than a Planter's Nuts factory in a vertical let down below 5', because the wake interacts with the tail. It hovers better than anything else at 15', though.
