First flight rumored to have slipped into next year, with SL cert now first quarter of 2010. Two years behind original schedule, but probably no bad thing given the state of the economy...

"S-76D may require a major airframe redesign in order to comply with OGP rules".

Sorry to state the obvious, but why don't you contact the Chairman or Secretary of the OGP Aviation Sub-Committee ? This is a Rumour website after all !!

I understand the rotor blades haven't flown yet....
Not bagging it - just interested. It's about time there was some serious competition. What about EC175?.....is that ever going to be marketed or is it just a eurosinodream
