AD: Centrair

AD NUMBER: 2010-24-10

MANUFACTURER: CENTRAIR Models 101, 101A, 101P, and 101AP Gliders
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2010-24-10

SUMMARY: 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:

Damages to the rudder bar locking adjustment tube of a non- reinforced version have been reported to Soci[eacute]t[eacute] Nouvelle (SN) Centrair. This tube had been reinforced in 1984 with a modification. Gliders produced before the introduction of this modification have not been systematically retrofitted.

In case of rudder bar locking adjustment tube breaking in flight when adjusting the rudder pedals position, it might interfere with the rudder pedals which could lead to rudder jam or a restricted rudder movement and consequently, to reduced control of the sailplane.
