A U.S. Marine Corps MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 165 (Reinforced), 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, takes off from Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California, March 12, 2024, marking the first operational flight of a I Marine Expeditionary Force MV-22 since the tiltrotor aircraft’s return to flight. Lt. Gen. Michael S. Cederholm, commanding general I Marine Expeditionary Force, joined the crew showing his absolute confidence in the maintainers, aircrew and platform. The Marine Corps returned its MV-22s to flight status on March 8, 2024, following Naval Air Systems Command’s (NAVAIR) announcement that deemed the aircraft safe to fly. The Marine Corps’ three-phased approach begins with a focus on regaining basic flight currency, rebuilding units instructor cadres, and achieving proficiency in Core and Basic skill training for pilots and aircrew.
