My operator here in the ME has grounded aircraft pending tail rotor inspections of the area of interest....one u/s blade with crack so far and waiting.
Can any of you confirm if the cracks are in the area to be inspected by the bulletin? or forward from it, just before where the trailing edge starts.

Thanks
