The Marine Corps says it will not be grounding its fleet of MV-22B Osprey aircraft less than a day after the Air Force announced an indefinite halt, citing safety issues with the airplane's clutch. The Corps said that it's known about the problem since 2010 and its pilots can handle it, with one service official calling the issues "common knowledge."

Lt Col Charlie Brown I feel like this is making my fellow Marines take an unnecessary risk since this is a know problem.

When I saw this headline this morning, the first thought I had was, why didn't the Marine Corps share that they knew about the problem.
