Zusammenfassung:	A rotor blade clamp is provided for assisting with mounting and/or dismounting of a rotor blade. The clamp has a first clamping part and a second clamping part opposed to the first clamping part. A spring-loaded hinge connects the first clamping part to the second clamping part, and has at least one spring that biases the clamping parts apart to an opened clamp configuration. The clamp has a reeving mechanism with a first reeving portion on the first clamping part and a second reeving portion on the second clamping part. The first and second reeving portions are adapted to receive a line therebetween, whereby pulling a free portion of the line reeved through the reeving portions draws the clamping parts together to a closed clamp configuration against the bias of the at least one spring.
