I guess the investigations are over or a least going well:

I believe the Ospreys are made at DFW, Tx plants... 11 is hardly going to make Bell break even on that project.

The CNN article says the Ospreys will be mad in DFW Texas, Amarillo, TX and Ridley Park, PA. The first V22 was made at Boeing in Philly. I think with the new design the V22 will be safer.
