It's still not certified for FIKI so far as I know and I wouldn't expect it to be until next year at least. But that one isn't really Eclipse's fault. The FAA has rewritten the regs to the point that I'm not sure that any new aircraft with inflatable boots will ever pass. I think their best bet is to go with a TKS system, but maybe they can talk some sense into the FAA.
