Ospreys – VTOL Aircraft for Cyberpunk 2020

Ospreys – Aircraft for Cyberpunk 2020

This article contains two new osprey-style aircrafts for Cyberpunk 2020. Ospreys are VTOL-capable, which means they can land and start like a helicopter. In flight they are more like a propeller-driven plane. In real time there is only the V-22 Osprey, the aircraft in this articles are fictional. I added the pictures to Colins article.

Cessna AE-800 Featherlight

The Featherlight is the lightest, mass-production tilt-wing VTOL in current usage. It shares a similar lineage to the L-C Pinto, but this is not suprising as they are both produced by Cessna. The AE-800 gained initial popularity in the wake of the 2nd Central American Conflict, in the use of smugglers bringing drugs and tarriff-free goods into the U.S. from Central America, South America, and Canada. As an older, and very common model, there are almost as many variants of the AE-800 as there are units still in service.
