I agree with the others, all the regs aside I would have the hub torn down
and inspected. Having all of the oil fly out of the hub during takeoff would
not make for a good day. The blades should be good to go.



Not nearly as bad a day as having one blade fly out. At our last annual
it was discovered that we had a corroded blade and a crack in the hub.
This "inspection" cost us $8500. :-( However, it sure beat the
alternative.
