Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Alexander Schleicher Segelflugzeugbau (Alexander Schleicher) Models ASW-19 and ASK 21 sailplanes. This AD requires: modifying the rudder surface panels; replacing the airbrake bellcrank; and modifying the rear canopy hinge structure. 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 prevent loss of the canopy caused by design deficiency, airbrake failure caused by cracking, and rudder panel flutter caused by high density altitude conditions, all of which could result in reduced sailplane controllability.
