I know most anything is possible when rotor blades, main or tail, depart the aircraft.

We seem to isolate the events when there is a chance a Main Rotor blade departing could lead to the other Main Rotor blade leaving too....and perhaps one of them taking out a Tail Rotor blade in the process thus kicking off the loss of the other Tail Rotor blades.

Hopefully, the missing TR blade will be found and the NTSB can determine what components failed or were catastrophically damaged should all this be caused from a mechanical failure.
