Hatty-

I sure hope you are correct about the Osprey. I am skeptical of any project that meets its requirements only because the requirements themselves are changed to match actual capabilities.

As for the 787, I'm sure the Dreamliner will be a fine passenger jet. From what I have read, Boeing seems to have the right plane at the right time for today's market. For that reason, it may well be an "awesome" aircraft.
