AD: Glasflugel

AD NUMBER: 2004-09-02
MANUFACTURER: Glasflugel
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2004-09-02
SUMMARY: 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 ADalso 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 forGermany. 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.
