Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to Glaser-Dirks Flugzeugbau GmbH (Glaser-Dirks) Model DG-100 sailplanes equipped with the main L4 fitting of the all flying tailplane. This action requires inspecting (one-time) the tailplane main fitting to ensure the part is accurately welded, and modifying the tailplane main fitting if not accurately welded. A report of tailplane main fitting failure on one of the affected sailplanes, where the welding did not completely cover the entire wall thickness of the fitting, prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of control of the sailplane because of tailplane main fitting failure.
