SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-04-08
SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive
(AD) for the products listed above. 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.
Friends and colleagues of Peter "Pip" Borrman will remember him
as one of Australia's most accomplished aerobatic pilots. Borrman,
54, was killed Wednesday when his new Pitts Samson crashed during a
photo shoot at Shepparton Aerodrome in Kialla.
