Is it not the case that the pilot must report a "sudden stoppage" blade strike following such an occurrance? It's a rather expensive inspection on a 500.

Do remember that the 500 has an AD with respect to hidden blade spar faults, and blade separation. Is the wild animal worth the risk and cost?

Not for me!
