The reality of what we are discussing here......we have had two occurrences like what the video of the shed rotor system slowly spinning on its way to earth and rising column of black smoke from the wreckage in the Bergen video shows.

Yet, today, there is no definitive explanation of exactly what caused the failures....we know pretty well HOW they happened...but not WHY they happened.

It might be that I missed the explanation in all of the posts in this thread that did clearly lay out the case of what actually caused the failures.

Lots of jabber about how to better monitor the MGB's for potential failures of the same sort, modifications of inspection schedules and component replacement, lots of testing of modified or different parts and components.....but no definitive statement of the exact root cause of the two failures.

Did I miss or over look it?

Am I the only one?

If that exact cause is not genuinely identified....should passengers and crew be flying in the aircraft?
