FAA Clears Super Pumas for Return to Service
EASA had previously permitted the helicopters to return to flight.

The U.S. FAA cleared the Airbus Helicopters Super Puma (H225s and AS332 L2s) for return to service via an alternate means of compliance (AMOC). The FAA grounded the helicopters in June (emergency airworthiness directive 2016-12-51) following the crash of an EC225LP in which the main rotor hub (MRH) detached from the main gearbox (MGB).
