Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Barry Aviation, LLC Model PZL-Krosno KR-03A "Peregrine" (Puchatek) sailplanes. This AD requires you to inspect to ensure that the correct horizontal stabilizer attachment fittings are installed, install the correct fittings if necessary, and incorporate a "NO LIFT" placard to the vertical stabilizer. This AD is the result of reports of cracks in the horizontal stabilizer attachment fittings on the affected sailplanes. Analysis of these incidents reveals that incorrect fittings were installed. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent such cracks in the horizontal stabilizer attachment fittings, which could result in the horizontal stabilizer separating from the sailplane with consequent loss of control of the sailplane.
