Upon re-reading is see the section you are referring to. It's a shame the owner did not properly inspect his MRBs, then.

Not that it should need to, but owning -5 blades definitely has reinforced a desire to be meticulous about preflight inspections. When you are vertically challenged such as I you can't visualize the top of the blades when on the built in steps you use to check the main rotor head. You need a 10ft (3M) stepladder to do it right, which I have, and do.
