Abstract

On July 14, 1978 the pilot of a Bell 212 helicopter reported that noise and excessive vibration were emanating from the main transmission and he made a precautionary landing. Preliminary examination of the aircraft's main transmission disclosed that four teeth had separated from the main transmission input spiral bevel gear (PN 204–040–701–3). The total time on the component was 562 hours.
