Ah the infamous Felton Baker....did he not at one time have to step away from Houston Helicopters under duress from the FAA as well?

I can remember with great clarity seeing an engineer with a 206 tail rotor blade in a vice....happily sawing the thing into two pieces. Upon my inquiring just what the heck was he doing or words very similar to that....he replied "By God....this is one unservicable blade Felton ain't gonna get!"

I do not know to exactly what he was referring....but from the look in his eye....he was being very sincere.
