00:03.719 --> 00:07.886
^- Japan decided to introduce Osprey later next year

00:08.404 --> 00:11.291
^so I have to be an instructor pilot

00:11.291 --> 00:13.958
^by the first aircraft will come.

00:15.715 --> 00:18.503
^- Captain Sato, he's been on deck for about two months,

00:18.503 --> 00:19.859
^going through our ground school

00:19.859 --> 00:22.696
^and our first simulator stage, and uh

00:22.696 --> 00:24.019
he's now ready to move

00:24.019 --> 00:25.990
into the flight phase for 204.

00:25.990 --> 00:29.740
- This aircraft is very capable and very good

00:30.551 --> 00:32.468
to protect our country.

00:32.505 --> 00:35.577
- So basically taking uh a Japanese pilot,

00:35.577 --> 00:37.811
someone who has a lot of experience in aviation

00:37.811 --> 00:40.478
and introducing them to the V-22.

00:41.039 --> 00:43.541
This is a very unique opportunity to work hand in hand

00:43.541 --> 00:46.841
with an Allied Nation, and provide very unique training

00:46.841 --> 00:48.777
to an Allied Counterpart.

00:48.777 --> 00:50.699
I think to me this is just another way that we're

00:50.699 --> 00:53.199
progressing that relationship.
