Requires you to modify the engine compartment fuel and oil system and firewall.
Full official abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Stemme GmbH & Co. KG (Stemme) Models S10 and S10-V sailplanes. This AD requires you to modify the engine compartment fuel and oil system and firewall. This AD is the result of FAA's determination that the actions required in AD 2002-22-04 should also be accomplished on other sailplanes of similar type design. The actions specified by this AD are intended to reduce the potential for a fire to ignite in the engine compartment and to increase the containment of an engine fire in the engine compartment. A fire in the engine compartment could lead to loss of control of the sailplane.
