An Airbus Helicopters AS350BA helicopter operated by Heli Mistral Service, was on a visual flight rules flight from Trois-Rivières Airport, QC (CYRQ), with one pilot on board. While in cruise flight at approximately 1000 feet above ground level, the pilot noticed an object passing to his right but did not perceive any impact. After landing back at CYRQ, the post-flight inspection revealed damage near the trailing edge of the lower part of one of the main rotor blades. There were no injuries, and the blade in question had to be replaced.
