The MV-22 �Osprey� is a common sight in the skies of Eastern North Carolina, however, tens of thousands of people recently had an opportunity to observe the aircraft for the first time when two �Ospreys� made the �self-deployment� from MCAS New River to the continent of Europe. The flight covered more than 4,00 miles, much over it over the North Atlantic Ocean, in challenging weather conditions.
