Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2005-01-17. Comply with the one in force.
The following models and serial number airplanes, certificated in any category: Model Serial numbers EA-300............................. V1 and 01 through 50. EA-300/S........................... 01 through 17.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to EXTRA Flugzeugbau GmbH Models EA-300 and EA-300/S airplanes. This AD requires inspecting the upper longeron cutout bridge for cracks, repairing any cracks found, and modifying this area. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent structural damage to the fuselage caused by cracks in the upper longeron cutout bridge, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in loss of control of the airplane.
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.
