Greetings everybody. First I'd like to give my thanks to all the service men and women posting and lurking on the forums for putting your lives on the line for the US of A. In December I got selected for an air slot and I attend Marine OCS this summer and I can't wait until I am serving with this community and hope to meet the members of this forum one day.
As an aviation newbie, when I heard about the Osprey aircraft I always wondered what kind of flight time would it constitute as. Would it be logged on as rotor time? Fixed wing? If a military Osprey pilot retired with a few thousand hours of Osprey flight time, how do you think civilian corporations would count this time towards?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not joining in the Marines just to build a portfolio to retire upon; this is just a question that I've had but no one has seem to be able to answer from that I've met locally, which includes various flight instructors and aersopace professors.
Thanks for your time and take care.
