1) The S-76D program is still on track for certification during the 1Q of 2009.

2) The program has stepped up to the plate to bring the cert basis up to be at least 92% compliant to the latest FAR/JAR amendments (currently working to make this value even higher).
(1) Someone missed the boat by several quarters. As for 2010...

(2) Why not 100%? With new engines, FADEC, rotor, autopilot, cockpit displays, icing, etc., one might think full compliance with the latest amendment would be in order. "Stepping up" to 92% rather sounds like a hollow boast.
