The German Airworthiness Authority (LBA) originally type certificated glider Model SF 
27 A under its Type Certificate No. 257.  Effective September 13, 2006, the European 
Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this product on behalf of the LBA.  
The EASA Type Certificate No. is EASA.A.104. 
 
Equipment: The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations  
(see Certification Basis) must be installed in the glider for certification. 
 
Service Information: Each of the documents listed below may state that it is approved by the European 
Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) or – for approvals made before September 13, 2006 – 
by the German Airworthiness Authority (LBA).   
• Service bulletins 
• Structural repair manuals 
• Vendor manuals 
• Aircraft flight manuals 
• Overhaul and maintenance manuals 
 
The FAA accepts such documents and considers them FAA-approved for type design 
data unless one of the following conditions exist: 
• The documents change the limitations, performance, or procedures of the FAA 
approved manuals. 
 
The FAA uses the post type validation procedures to approve these documents.  The 
FAA may delegate case-by-case approval to EASA on behalf of the FAA for the U.S. 
type certificate.  If this is the case it will be noted on the doc ument.
