Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-15726 · Engine fuel & control
Stemme GmbH & Co. KG Models S10 and S10-V Gliders
This AD applies to Models S10 and S10-V gliders, serial numbers 10-32, 10-53, 14-025, and 14-027, certificated in any category.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
Unless already done, do the following actions:
(1) Before every flight after November 26, 2008 (the effective date of this AD) until accomplishment of paragraph (f)(2) of this AD, inspect the fuel lines in the engine compartment (pressed lines) following Stemme F & D Service Bulletin A31-10-084 Am.-Index: 01.a, dated October 1, 2008.
(2) Before further flight where any leakage is found as a result of any inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD or within the next 25 days after November 26, 2008 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, replace all the fuel lines in the engine compartment (pressed lines) following Stemme F & D Service Bulletin A31-10-084 Am.-Index: 01.a, dated October 1, 2008. Replacement of all fuel lines in the engine compartment (pressed lines) terminates the repetitive inspection requirement of paragraph (f)(1) of this AD.
Note: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information as follows: No differences.
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.
