We have had far more hydraulic line failures with our eurocopter 365n3's than our 139,s. similar hours and cycles.
I believe the case your referring to is a chaffed line to the tail.Caused by the operators maintenance personnel putting the wrong screw (way too long) in a panel.
I get the feeling some people expect things to never wear out or fail around here...........
