Summary
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain CENTRAIR 101 series gliders. This proposed AD would require you to replace non-strengthened rudder pedals with reinforced rudder pedals. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. We are issuing this proposed AD to replace the non-strengthened rudder pedals, to prevent failure of the rudder controls. This failure could lead to loss of directional control of the glider.
