R-44 Dash 7 Blades
Hello,
What's the latest on R-44 dash 7 blades from the FAA point of view?
Do they need to be replaced by a certain date or inspected regularly?
Tried to look up that stuff on the internet but it seems not to be there.
Thanks guys.

It's there. Indeed, Robinson does an excellent job of posting all applicable AD and SB information on their website, and it's not even hard to find:

There's one AD and one SB associated with the -7 blades. The AD is an inspection procedure. The SB requires a one time modification to the blades. Other than that they are, currently, considered good to go for their full design lifetime.
I'd recommend you get familiar with all of the applicable AD and SD information published on the Robinson website that affects the Robinson helicopters you are operating, and update your POH appropriately.
