Serial Numbers Eligible. (See Import Requirements and NOTE 5)
Data Pertinent To All Models
Serial Nos. Eligible. 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 standard airworthiness certification is
made. (See NOTE 5)
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 German Airworthiness Authority, the
Luftfahrt-Bundesamt (LBA), containing the following statement: "The glider
covered by this certificate has been examined and found to comply with the
Federal Republic of Germany glider airworthiness requirements dated February
1966 and conforms to Type Certificate No. G36EU and is in condition for safe
operation".
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.
Certification Basis. FAR 21.29, effective February 1, 1965.
Federal Republic of Germany Airworthiness Requirements, dated February
1966 were found to provide a level of safety equivalent to provisions of FAR
21.23 to enable certification under the provision of FAR 21.29.
Type Certificate No. G36EU issued January 12, 1977.
Date of Application for Type Certificate: May 5, 1976.
The LBA, originally type certificated these gliders under its Type Certificate
(TC) No. 308, initial issue May 7, 1976. Effective September 28, 2003, the
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of these models and
the LBA TC was deemed to be issued by EASA and remains valid.
Equipment. The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness
regulations (see Certification Basis) must be installed in the glider for standard
G36EU 3
airworthiness certification. In addition the following equipment must be
installed:
1) Instruments (Non-Cloud flying):
(i) Airspeed indicator, Winter 6FMS/W 19, or PZL PR-250S/W 19 with
extended range to 270 km/h., or an FAA-approved equivalent.
(ii) Altimeter.
(iii) Lap and shoulder straps.
2) Additional Instruments for Cloud flying:
(i) Magnetic compass.
(ii) Turn and bank.
(iii) Variometer.
3) For Model ASW-19: LBA-approved Flight and Operations Manual dated
May 1976 or later LBA-approved issue.
For Model ASW-19B: LBA-approved Flight and Operations Manual dated
June 1978 or later LBA-approved issue.
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 placards must be installed in full view of the pilot:
