About 2 years ago Herman Hospital in Houston, TX lost a BK117 due to a M/R
blade loss. They were on approach, I seem to recall about 100 ft AGL, and
broke a TT strap (badly corroded). The M/R gearbox left the aircraft and all
3 souls were lost.
Ok another question. What is a TT strap?

them to put Americans out of work, visit the following
