Airworthiness Directives; Aerotechnik s.r.o. Model L 13 SEH VIVAT Sailplanes
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Aerotechnik s.r.o. (Aerotechnik) Model L 13 SEH VIVAT sailplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the tail-fuselage hinge for strength requirements and damage, and also requires you to replace any hinge with damage or that does not meet strength requirements. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for the Czech Republic. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct any tail-fuselage hinge that is damaged or has inadequate material characteristics. Any tail-fuselage hinge with damage or inadequate material characteristics could fail and result in loss of controlled flight.

Airworthiness Directives; EVEKTOR, spol. s.r.o. Gliders
We are superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2000-20-12 for EVEKTOR, spol. s.r.o. Models L 13 SEH VIVAT and L 13 SDM VIVAT gliders (type certificate previously held by AEROTECHNIK s.r.o.). This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as insufficient material strength of the tail- fuselage attachment fitting. We are issuing this AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.
