Abstract

A boot provides for removable attachment to a tail rotor assembly to flexibly protect the interior of the tail rotor blade assemblies. The boot includes a first fastener strip mounted adjacent a first boot edge and a second fastener strip mounted adjacent a second boot edge. The first and second fastener strips are “hook and loop” material to removably attach the edges which permits relatively uncomplicated installation and removal of the boot.
