Full official abstract
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Schempp-Hirth (SCHEMPP-HIRTH) Flugzeugbau GmbH Model Duo-Discus gliders. This AD requires you to do a one-time inspection of the bonding of the spar cap and spar web and repair any defective bonding of the spar cap and spar web. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct failure of the bonding of the spar cap and spar web, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in an in-flight wing failure.
