Curious to see the market development of the tilt rotor...it took a lot of time to FAA to figure out the right certif basis for tilt rotor, with specific airworthiness requirement not fully disclosed to public access, and probably linked to their need to understand the safety analysis compared to classic rotor/tail concept. case of autorotation in rare event of complete power failure is one of them but also pilot skills required. This may discourage a market expansion, but also recurring cost to operate and maintain such machine.
