4.1.2.3.2.
In order to reduce the risk of loss of an aircraft in the maritime environment, it is essential that the MH have power plant and flight dynamic capabilities, which include the following features:
a. capability of operating in icing conditions;
b. be multi-engined and have a one-engine-inoperative (OEI) capability sufficient to allow: a safe immediate emergency landing from a 60 ft hover, or, after transition to forward flight, safe recovery to the nearest practical landing site; and
c. to maximize the chances of safely recovering the MH, all gearboxes must be capable of operating for a minimum of 30 minutes after the total loss of all normal lubricating fluid.
The only question is does the aircraft meet the requirements of para B .
there are no extra points for exceeding the requirements .

Does any one have the equivalant requirement from the original SOR ?.
