Main rotor blade sling aids in safely removing and installing main rotor blades.
The 429 puts you at the upper limits of safely R&R the main rotor blades due to the hight of the blades, your work stands and short mechanics.
Even a tall guy has to stretch to a point where it's just not safe to be pulling expensive blades by hand, not to mention the possibility of falling off a stand and we all know there is a serious shortage of mechanics out there.
