Glasflugel-Ing. E. Hanle Model GLASFLUGEL Kestrel Sailplanes
The Federal Register printed this AD without its applicability text. Read it at the link below.
The FAA adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Glasflugel--Ing. E. Hanle (Glasflugel) Model GLASFLUGEL Kestrel sailplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the airbrake actuating shaft for deformation and cracks (herein referred to as damage). If any damage is found, this AD also requires you to repair or replace the airbrake actuation shaft. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct damage to the airbrake actuation shaft, which could result in failure of the airbrake control. This failure could lead to loss of control of the sailplane.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
