Re: Westwind

If I'm not mistaken the TSB didn't exist in the 70's, the organization was created in 1990....so how could they have been involved in a cover up (political influence) back then?

Bell 206L Main Rotor Cracks

Bell issued an alert service bulletin about two years ago for the B206L, as a result of a main rotor in-flight separation. Is anybody familiar with this SB? It calls for a dye penetrate inspection every 60 cycles. Just wondering if anybody has discovered any cracks in the MR during this inspection.

It is a great place to work, good money,room and meals provided. The equipment is well maintained and you are treated well. There is no IFR experience needed and you are never pushed to fly in crap weather.
