AD: Brantly International, Inc. Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2014-20-16

PRODUCT: Brantly International, Inc. (Brantly) Model B-2, Model B-2A, and Model B-2B helicopters with certain main rotor blades.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD requires inspecting each main rotor (M/R) blade for a crack or delamination and removing the blade if a crack exists or if the delamination exceeds certain thresholds.

This AD was prompted by multiple reports of M/R blade cracks and an incident in which a crack that originated near the M/R blade trailing edge resulted in the loss of a large section of the M/R blade.

The actions of this AD are intended to prevent loss of the M/R blade and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective November 12, 2014.

FMI: AD
