Very sad ... needless to say, it has been a rough week for the Marines.

Semper FI, Marines...

Update from my sources: the aircraft suffered a hard landing. Without any Osprey pilots here, I'll take a wild gander that there was a power failure and they did whatever Osprey s do. Thank heavens no one else is killed. Prayers and thoughts to the families.

Update on the incident from the Marine Times (18MAY15).

A fire broke out aboard the MV-22B Osprey that made a hard landing in Hawaii on Sunday — leaving one Marine dead and 21 injured — but it remains unknown if that caused the mishap, a Pentagon spokesman said Monday.

"There was a fire [and it is] unclear at this point whether or not the fire is what caused the hard landing or whether to not the fire broke out after," said Army Col. Steve Warren. "There were injuries associated with the fire."
