Hey VF, this is a scary... a near new B3 and the boy's are tabbing the blades??????, in my experience this is rear unless there has been a blade change or someone has damaged a blade..my thoughts only![Sad](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/puppy_dog_eyes.gif)

JD,
Actually not that unusual. Any helicopter tracked as acceptable at Sea Level will
normally require a tweak at "high altitude".
High altitude of course is a relative term depending where you happen to be!
