Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all S.N. Centrair (Centrair) 101 series sailplanes. This AD requires replacing the airbrake control system with one of improved design. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of the airbrake control system caused by cracks in the original design airbrake control system, which could result in an inadvertent forced landing with consequent sailplane damage and/or passenger injury.
