Airworthiness Directives; DG Flugzeugbau GmbH Model DG-500MB
Gliders
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document makes a correction to Airworthiness Directive
(AD) 2007-26-15, which was published in the Federal Register on January
3, 2008 (73 FR 400), and applies to all DG Flugzeugbau GmbH Model DG-
500MB gliders. AD 2007-26-15 requires that you modify the affected
parts and exchange pages in the flight, maintenance, and repair
manuals. The FAA incorrectly referenced the AD number as ``2007-26-25''
instead of ``2007-26-15.'' Current language in Sec. 39.13 [Amended] of
AD 2007-26-15 references ``AD 2007-26-25'' instead of ``2007-26-15.''
This document corrects that paragraph by replacing the reference of
``2007-26-25'' with ``2007-26-15.''
DATES: The effective date of this AD (2007-26-15) remains February 7,
2008.

This packet is not an airworthiness determination and not legal or maintenance advice. AircraftDirectives reproduces official records and condenses their wording for easier reading. It does not decide, certify or imply whether any aircraft, engine, appliance or part is airworthy, compliant, affected by this directive, or eligible for return to service. No inspection, approval, or determination of any kind is performed or implied by this document.
Section 1 is a reading aid, not the rule. It is our own plain-language condensation, written to help a reader find the relevant directive quickly. It is NOT a substitute for the regulation, it may omit conditions, exceptions, compliance times, alternative methods of compliance (AMOCs) and applicability limits, and it has no legal force whatsoever. Only the official text governs. Where Section 1 and Section 2 differ in any respect, Section 2 - and the official source it was retrieved from - controls absolutely.
Responsibility remains with the owner/operator. Under 14 CFR §91.403 and §91.417 the owner or operator is responsible for maintaining airworthiness and for required records; under §39.7 no person may operate a product to which an airworthiness directive applies except in accordance with that directive. Determining applicability to a specific serial number and configuration, and performing or supervising any required action, is the responsibility of the owner/operator and appropriately certificated personnel.
Accuracy and currency. Section 2 was retrieved at the time stamped above and is reproduced without edit; Federal Register material is a work of the United States Government. Directives are amended, corrected and superseded over time, and this sheet is a snapshot, not a live record - it does not update after printing. Re-check the official sources before acting on it. This packet is provided without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not sell parts and have no commercial interest in any action a directive may require.
