The Dreaded Robinson Blade Delamination

Its happened to our R44. Less than 200 hours total on the blades and we have to throw one away. Lives near the sea but always hangared and has a relatively quiet life. US$20,000 for a blade plus reattachment of our old spindle.

I know this has been brought up before but has anyone managed to get any warranty or contribution from Uncle Frank??

Also I saw a thread a while back on this airwolf tape.. is this preventative and repair?? anyone had any experience of using it??
