What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The aircraft sustained loss of the tail rotor pitch control in cruise flight. The pilot executed a run-on landing on a hard surface runway without causing damage to the aircraft. Subsequent evaluation of the aircraft revealed that the tail rotor pitch change spider bearing had apparently seized and severed the pitch control mechanism. The tail rotor pitch change spider assembly was returned to the manufacturer for further evaluation.
