Aero-News Quote of the Day

“The purpose of the rolling vertical landing is for landing at expeditionary sites or in case of inclement weather... We’d only do the landing if the wind was pushing north, and if the wind was really bad we would divert to another airfield. Al Asad’s primary runways lead the same direction. So, we’re practicing landing on a taxiway leading a different direction as the primaries.”

Source: Lt. Col. John Sisson, Marine Attack Squadron 542's commanding officer, talking about the need to practice RVLs in the AV-8B Harrier.
