MORAVAN a.s. Model Z-242L Airplanes

The Federal Register printed this AD without its applicability text. Read it at the link below.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all MORAVAN a.s. (Moravan) Model Z-242L airplanes. This AD establishes a technical service life for these airplanes by restricting Acrobatic and Utility category operations and requiring replacement of the wings after a certain operational time period. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for the Czech Republic. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent structural failure of the wing due to fatigue cracking. Such failure could result in a wing separating from the airplane with consequent loss of airplane control.
