About fifeteen years ago, the Trump organisation lost an A109 and all onboard when a blade gave up. Allegedly investigation found that during manufacturer an over zealous operative induced a hairline fracture in the blade spar by removing bonding agent with a knife.

Absolutely frightening that we as an industry continue to make the same mistakes!
