AD: Glasflugel Gliders (Revision)

AD NUMBER: 2012-15-07 R1

PRODUCT: Glasflugel Models Standard Libelle-201B, Club Libelle 205, Mosquito, and Kestrel gliders.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-15-07 R1
ACTION: Final Rule, Request for Comments

SUMMARY: The FAA is revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above.

That AD currently requires actions to address the unsafe condition on these products. This new AD includes clarification that the replacement control rod has an additional drain hole at the rod bottom between the forks and is the acceptable configuration for compliance.

This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as corrosion damage to the elevator control rod that could lead to failure of the elevator control rod, possibly resulting in loss of control of the glider.

DATES: This AD is effective September 25, 2012. Comments are due by October 25, 2012.

FMI: AD
