It looks like the aft tail cone separated cleanly. Is there a production break at that point? Is the damper bearing located in this area?

I don't know much about the R-44, but I was wondering what would cause such a clean break in the tail boom structure as shown in the ATSB Preliminary Report.

Regards,
