Default V-22 Osprey "ground effect" question

In the publicity photo's of ship landing's the V-22 looks like one prop is
in "ground effect" and the other one is hanging over the side of the ship so
it's NOT in "ground effect"

Does anyone know how big of a problem this is? Does it limit the cross-wind
performance? So even though it's vtol the ship has to be pointed into the
wind etc?
