only practical way pt 2

there is another way because the EH101 managed to pass the 30 minute tests without an auxiliary lube system many years ago.

Never been needed so far but fully compliant with the rules.

here is a rheotic question. Quoted above is this..

The service history therefore does not support the method of compliance that was originally accepted by the FAA at the time of the Model S-92A type certification


doesn't that mean that the FAA now recognises that the certification basis was incorrect and if that is the case why is the S92 still flying as a Category A aircraft when it patently isn't?
