dc.description.abstractResults of a survey investigating commonly occurring minor rotor blade damage incidents are presented in this paper. Over 100 participants worldwide ranging from test pilots to commercial pilots and licensed engineers answered the survey. The focus of this work was to provide a user-oriented context that can inform the decision-making process for integrating state-of-the-art instrumentation systems for rotor blade health monitoring onboard operational helicopters. This paper highlights the dichotomy faced by designers who have a choice to follow either a reactive strategy based on operational experience or a preventative approach based on technological trends.en_UK
