This may be a stupid question, but why is the AS332L1 not included in the MGB increased inspection requirements? Different design or based on lower power/load requirements?
I’m told the gears in both the A332L2 and EC225LP are subject to increased hardening during the manufacturing process, I suspect as a result of increased torque levels.
I'm also told some of the Dauphins require repetitive boroscope inspections of the internal gearbox areas, but due to the seriousness of this inspection, I would be surprised if boroscoping alone would satisfy the level of inspection required by the Airworthiness Authorities.
