Ospreys are no more unsafe than any other aircraft in the military. Its early life gives it its reputation, but it’s actually a great aircraft. Source? I have more than a few friends who are crew chiefs on them from my time in the Marines.
I’ve also flown in them and do not hesitate to do so.

Anyway, flyovers of an enclosed stadium is freaking dumb.

As a former Marine, I would like the Faux-Patriotism displays to be discontinued! A flyover of a dome stadium is foolish & a HUGE waste of $$. The DOD also pays the NFL to perform the anthem & have that huge flag rolled out. How many fans at home do you know that stand & place their hand over their hearts(a salute by a civilian is inappropriate)? I know ONE! Hell, most, at the game, don't even stop talking, buying dome foam or in waiting in line at the head, during the anthem. Forget about the masses that don't even know the words(including the famous spectator today, who has already shown he doesn't).
A blimp over NOLA showing pictures during a game w/commentary is even more ridiculous.
