Its amazing the longevity of the S58 / Wessex
I have a few S58T main rotor blades (we started with 34 and now down to 20 which are still fit for overhaul and repair) in the warehouse which will be shipped back to a customer in the USA for overhaul , a few of these blades date back to the mid to late 50's ! ! !
I think as far as helis goes these old things are built like tanks
