            Background:  The FAA has determined that the original cyclic control system design meets existing FAA design standards, but has limited damage tolerance characteristics and does not display slow crack growth properties. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the cyclic control system and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.
