And there was another one, which lost the T/R driveshaft somewhere near Manching airfield. It was a ECD testpilot, who encountered this experience in the early days of the 135 ( Problems with T/R driveshaft bearings ).
The japanese H/C had a broken fenestron pitch link due to a blocked bearing (?), after that, EC changed the design.
I know of at least two complete enginefailures ...
