Subject
- Two accidents have been attributed to crosstube assemblies (crosstubes) failures. Therehave also been a number of reports of cracks due to corrosion or metal fatigue that might cause a failure of the crosstubes. On the crosstubes of older design, the cracks were mostly found at the rivet holes in the attachment-to-fuselage area and at the saddle attachment. On the newer, clamp-on tubes without holes, the cracks were mostly found in the saddle attachment area and along the line where the clamp touches the tube. Helicopters operating in a corrosive environment, or being used in training or sightseeing role involving frequent landings are most affected.
