Whether or not this was caused by the loss of a pin it still shows the importance of making pin design changes that prevent future insertion of a pin in the wrong hole. 3 very critical parts that can be confused . . . it buggers belief.
It has been pointed out that a small pin in the larger strut hole should be obvious right away on power up / rotor lift or HUMS as happened previously, but that is still no reason not to ask for a redesign of the pins to avoid this possibility.
Edit : post 467 clears up this issue, 225 pins - all three lower pins have the same diam.
