How so.....?????
Point is....I've flown 21,000 + hrs. with 12,000 hrs on a longline, in a salt air laden, corrosive, erosive, heavy moisture, with snow, ice, and hail environment on everything from an asymmetrical blade to old style symmetrical (S64) main rotor blades with stainless steel and clear (3M) plastic tape, doing thousands of repetative lifts ( heli-logging) with absolutely no problems whatsoever.....please elaborate how blade tape is dangerous?????
Helilog
I simply say because of the number of incidents I've learned from, I have nerver operated an a/c with BT nor will want it as long as I can.
Since you have such vast experience with them, maybe you could enlighten us with some tips/advices/myths all about it.
