What was found
THIS BEARING WAS REMOVED DURING A ROUTINE SCHEDULED INSPECTION. IT WAS ROUGH AND NOISY COMPARED TO THE OTHER FIVE BEARINGS IN THE TAIL ROTOR DRIVE SYSTEM. IF NOT FOR THE PORBLEMS THIS MODEL HELICOPTER HAS HAD IN THIS AREA, THE BEARING WOULD PROBABLY BEEN LEFT IN SERVICE. THE BEARING WAS NOT REALLY THAT BAD.
