AD: PZL Bielsko

AD NUMBER: 2008-02-09
MANUFACTURER: PZL Bielsko
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-02-09
SUMMARY:
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: On the pre-flight check of a SZD-50-3 glider, the Right Hand (RH) wing airbrake was found impossible to retract.

Investigation revealed that the occurrence was caused by a loose bolt of the 'V' shape airbrake bellcrank, named hereafter intermediate control lever. The Left Hand (LH) wing lever also presented, to a lesser extent, a loose bolt.

This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
