The eC120 was one recent incident we know off and the AD demands a precautionary one time inspection and then the 15hr visual checks. Don't know of anymore hubs were found cracked during the subsequent inspections. Anyone know of more?

The hub used by the 130 is exactly the same as the 350 and very similiar to the 365. This principle have accumulated millions of flight hours by now with the starflex. What is interesting to see here is that there is 1.5 MR blades it seems remaing on the aircraft and they have spread to equality ie 206 head. Very sad accident.
