Cockpit View USMC Harrier Take-Off and Landing
VTOL is not only fuel ineffcient, it also limits your take off load. So if the plane is full combat equipped it will not take off vertically. Instead it will use STOL since Harrier is a V/STOL fighter. It's taken off of a LHD (USMC amphibious assault ship).

I seem to remember reading that VTOL is very fuel-inefficient. Maybe they only do it where they have to.

It's kind of curious, I expected to see a VTOL take off vertically as well. Perhaps there is too much jet wash on take off for the deck of a carrier but I'd expect there would be a lot more on landing.
H-46 Sea Knight (Phrog) catches fire
Dual rotor VTOLs have always had problems anyway but the osprey is better suited than anything else out there right now. Looks like this chopper skipped it's last safety inspection.

Lockheed Martin X-35, VTOL Test (Vertical Take Off & Landing)
I don't see what benifits this tech could bring consumers. We've had VTOL for years and nothing has developed from that. I mean when supersonic is too expensive to be viable then what would we need this for?

I think VTOL in general is problematic Nebosuke, the Osprey hasn't done any better.
