V-22 down in Norway. 4 fatalities

They just released the crew names and ages…two new 27 year old 0-3s at the controls…if the ages are correct and knowing how things work with flight hours these days I bet this turns out to be a very junior crew…pure speculation on my part…but I bet winter flying time has been limited for them. Rest In Peace all
 
I saw mention of bad weather mixed with high terrain, rescue helicopters unable to reach the site. When operating on local training missions, it’s often a VFR type operation. I didn’t watch any Juan video(have others, credit him), can’t help but relate to a few AK sightseeing flights that unsuccessful tried to complete in marginal weather. RIP, tragic no doubt.
 
I guess there is another V-22 down yesterday…Navy out of Norfolk…reporting one dead.
