CV-22 at the Tonopah Test Range

A CV-22 showed up on 8./29/2006. The flight path did not appear to be along the TTR path for cinema theodolite photography.  The only distinctive thing I noted about the CV-22 was that it is extremely quiet.

This photograph is just to prove that yes, indeed, the CV-22 was at the TTR.  Those are the old F-117a hangars in the background.

Hey, this isn't an airshow. This is the best shot I got.

Ok, maybe, just maybe, I was spotted. The camera wasn't tilted to take this shot. That was the angle the plane was flying.
