You left out the UH-60 and the S-76 shucking main rotor blades due to spindle failure. There was also the Govt of Kentucky S-76 that shucked a tail rotor blade. The report was that the tail rotor blade was used in ultimate load tests and instead of being scrapped as is practiced was repainted and delivered.
