<p>A rotor blade assembly and a method of operation is disclosed. The blade assembly comprises an elongated support member (124),a rotor blade (116) operatively coupled to the support member, the rotor blade including an inboard end portion, and a lag damper assembly (184). The lag damper assembly includes a housing portion (186) having at least one first engagement surface (194), and a slide member portion (196) having at least one second engagement surface (194), at least one of the housing portion (186) and the slide member portion (196) being coupled to the support member (124) proximate the inboard end portion of the rotor blade, the other of the housing portion and the slide member portion being adapted to be coupled to an adjacent structure, and wherein the first and second engagement surfaces are adapted to frictionally interact to at least partially dampen a movement of the support member relative to the adjacent structure.
