I go hands up on that then. If they are not one and the same I lose!
I was mislead by this statement.... 'During post-accident examination of the NOTAR control system, a fracture and separation was found in the force limiting control rod. With the rod assembly disconnected, the NOTAR fan blades assume a neutral pitch, preventing a sufficient volume of air in the tail boom to provide anti-torque control and maintain a heading.'
They said it [NOTAR] was not working properly because the rod broke.... so I just thought NOTAR might be involved somewhere along the line! Silly me!
