So what is the short story...Forward coupling of ET driveshaft had no grease or teletemps and failed due overheating and mechanical self destruction? A pilot wouldn't know there was no grease in the coupling (unless the seal was leaking), but would/should know as part of pre-flight inspection that the teletemps were missing. And with no teletemps on the coupling the aircraft should have been grounded for further investigation. Right?
