The NAA Export Certificate of Airworthiness (Export C of A) endorsed as noted below under "Import Requirements" must be submitted for each individual glider for which application for certification is made. Certification Basis. FAR 21.29 and Federal Republic of Germany glider airworthiness requirements dated August 1939 (These requirements are equivalent to FAR 21.23). Type Certificate G15EU issued June 21, 1967. G15EU 2 Date of Application for Type Certificate: May 19, 1967. The German Airworthiness Authority, the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt (LBA), originally type certificated this glider under its Type Certificate (TC) No. L-267, issued December 13, 1966. Effective September 28, 2003, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this model and the LBA TC was deemed to be issued by EASA and remains valid. Import Requirements. A U.S. airworthiness certificate may be issued on the basis of an NAA Export C of A signed by a representative of the LBA, containing the following statement: "The glider covered by this certificate has been examined, tested and found to comply fully with the Federal Republic of Germany glider airworthiness requirements dated August 1939, and conforms to Type Certificate No. G15EU." Refer to the applicable bilateral agreement to verify eligibility for import into the United States of both new and used aircraft based on the scope of the agreement, to identify any required statements by the exporting authority on the export certificate of airworthiness (or equivalent document), and for procedures for coordinating exceptions to conformity statements on these documents. Refer to FAA Order 8130.2, Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft, for requirements for issuance of an airworthiness certificate for imported aircraft. 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 must state that it is approved by the EASA or – for approvals made before September 28, 2003 – by the 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 only unless one of the following conditions exists: • The documents change the limitations, performance, or procedures of the FAA approved manuals. The FAA uses post type validation procedures to approve these documents. The FAA may delegate on a case-by-case basis to EASA to approve these on behalf of the FAA for the U.S. type certificate. If this is the case, it will be noted on the document. NOTES. NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report including list of equipment in certificated empty weight, and loading instructions when necessary, must be provided for each glider at the time of original certification. NOTE 2. The following placard must be installed in full view of the pilot: a. "When flying in rough air do not exceed 75 knots" b. "No acrobatic manoeuvres including spins approved" ...END... ``` ## ADs (7, in force first) - [AD 2022-12-07](https://openairdocs.org/ad/2022-12-07): Elevator, Spar/Rib Structure · Alexander Schleicher GmbH & Co.
