R22 Occurrence at Biggin Hill

Ed Thrust1V. I would be interested to see more details on the shim/bearing situation. For example. Given as you state, that the shims were missing,and the head was seized, does one assume that the teeter shaft was seized?. If it was seized, was it in the alloy head or the top of the rotor shaft. Did the engineer give any reason as to why the shims were missing (or how, if they were present originally) they managed to remove themselves from the shaft (scoring of the inner face of the alloy head for example) Had the head seized in exactly neutral position. Thanks, Bug.
