Roger that. Loose the Jesus nut and you loose the rotor then you loose the helo and crew. (BTW, I've parachuted from CH-47s --tailgate jumps...great platform (when properly assembled!))

If I was running that plant both those helos would be stripped down and inspected from top to bottom. Every machine in the place would be spot checked for similar issues.
