Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-11140 · S.N. CENTRAIR 101 Series Gliders
S.N. CENTRAIR 101 Series Gliders
Models 101, 101A, 101P, and 101AP gliders, all serial numbers, certificated in any category, that have modification 101-24 (major cockpit configuration equipped on all gliders manufactured since 1990) incorporated, and do not have modification 101-21 (minor modifications to this cockpit configuration) incorporated.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all S.N. CENTRAIR (CENTRAIR) 101 series gliders that have modification 101-24 (major cockpit configuration equipped on all gliders manufactured since 1990) incorporated, and do not have modification 101-21 (minor modifications to this cockpit configuration) incorporated. This AD requires installing an attachment lug to the supporting bracket in order to secure the battery discharge warning device. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent elevator flight control interference caused by an unsecured battery discharge warning device, which could result in reduced or loss of glider control.
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.
