An MV-22B Osprey hovers over mattress stacks during emergency landing pad procedures, aboard Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, Calif., Feb. 13. One Osprey practiced landing to test the configuration of the pad eyes. Pad eyes are used to anchor the ties that hold the numerous stacks of mattresses together, ensuring they can withstand the down wash of an MV-22B or a CH-53E.
