WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon is temporarily pausing flights again of 
its fleet of V-22 Ospreys after weakened metal components possibly 
played a role in another near crash, the latest setback for an embattled 
aircraft whose safety problems have grown.

The pause was recommended last week “out of an abundance of caution” by 
Vice Adm. Carl Chebi, the head of Naval Air Systems Command, which runs 
the Osprey program for the military, said command spokeswoman Marcia Hart.

The Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force are adhering to the recommended 
pause, each said in a statement to The Associated Press. The Marines 
said its pause began on Friday and would run at least through Monday. 
The other services are expected to maintain their pauses longer as they 
look at the cause of the metal failures.

An in-depth investigation into the Osprey by The AP published last month 
found that safety issues have increased in the past five years, parts 
are wearing out faster than expected and that the design of the aircraft 
itself is directly contributing to many of the accidents. The Osprey can 
fly both like a helicopter and an airplane.
