Trying to get back in the game after a while I thought I'd give the USN Ospreys a go using John's USMC model.
Does anyone have/know of a photo of the CMV-22Bs from above and/or below showing where the roundels are on the wings? I've not had much luck finding a clear one so for now have put the roundels in the same place as on the USMC paintkit.
The latest pic that I could find was of 169449, delivered this year, with VRM-50 taken on the may 19 this year and although there is no above shot there is still no markings on the underside.
My guess would be in line with Greg's that they don't advertise too much exactly who they are. Just the side markings.

Thanks gents, thats very helpful (and saves me some work!). Looking at youtube I have seen a few videos of ospreys with roundels but they appear to have been during testing rather than active service. There is one of the first CMV-22B arriving at north island and there is definitely nothing on the top of that one.
Well, that was supposed to be quick and easy and I found myself sorting out the rest of the traffic for North Island as well (my sim had precisely nothing going on). Ah well . Main texures are done, as are very basic flightplans. Just have to sort out lower-res/bmp textures and the readme and I should be ready to upload these.
The pack will have 17 aircraft in total- 10 for VRM-30, 5 for VRM-50 and a bonus two for HX-21 at Pax River.
On a definitely absolutely not-related note ,any idea what these buildings on the south west side of RAF Leeming are (and any library objects that would make a good analogue)? I'm guessing some kind of temporary hangar.
I am only going by what they say on their website, Gary. So I am not sure - No. It could well be that they don't bother to keep the website up to date for spotters.
