AD 95-17-08 60 FR 44422

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to Stemme GmbH (Stemme) S10 gliders. This action requires modifying the rudder control cable system. Rupture of a turnbuckle eye bolt in the rudder control cable system on one of the affected gliders prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent rudder control cable system failure caused by rupture of the turnbuckle eye bolt, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in loss of rudder control and eventual loss of control of the glider.
