Thanks NF, I never thought to look at the change record!
My memory is a bit vague but there must have been a tie-up between the original EASA EC225 TCDS and the "Puma" JAR certification, as my written brief from 2005 does state that it was a variant of the AS332L and L2. Perhaps the TCDS contained a written cross-reference?
I've tried to find a copy of the original TCDS but failed.
However as discussed, it is of little consequence, other than if there are common parts or carried across design logic with previous models then once we know the root cause of this accident the ramifications could be wider than just for the EC225.
Time will tell - hopefully soon!
