Type Certificate No. G51EU, issued July 9, 1986. Date of Application for Type Certificate: April 4, 1982. The applicable airworthiness requirements for U.S. certification under FAR 21.29 identified above were established considering the airworthiness requirements applied by the exporting country under the provisions of paragraphs 2 and 6 of the agreement between the United States of America and the Republic of Austria, dated April 30, 1959 titled Certificates of Airworthiness for Imported Aeronautical Products and Components. Import Requirements. To be considered eligible for operation in the United States, each aircraft manufactured under this type certificate must be accompanied by a certificate of airworthiness for export or certifying statement endorsed by the exporting foreign civil airworthiness authority which states (in the English language): This aircraft conforms to its U.S. type design (type certificate number G51EU) and is in a condition for safe operation. The U.S. airworthiness certification basis for aircraft type certificated under FAR Section 21.29 and exported by the country of manufacture is FAR Sections 21.183(c) or 21.185(c). The U.S. airworthiness certification basis for aircraft type certificated under FAR Section 21.29 exported from countries other than the country of manufacture (e.g. third party country) is FAR Sections 21.183(d) or 21.183(b). Hoffmann H36 Dimona, Serial Number 3508, 3509, 3514, 3518, 36152, 36153, 36204 and 36210 are eligible for U.S. Standard Airworthiness Certification when: 1) The FAA inspector is provided with the original Export Certificate of Airworthiness issued by the BAZ which certifies the glider conforms to the foreign type certificate. 2) The glider has been modified in accordance with the BAZ- approved HOFFMANN Service Bulletin No. 16 and, 3) The glider is found to be in safe operation by the FAA inspector. Modifications pre-dating the issuance of this Type Certificate and not included in paragraph 1 and 2 of this note and modifications dated after the issuance of this Type Certificate not covered by the note contained in the Service Information paragraph of this Type Certificate must be assumed not to be approved under this Type Certificate. G51EU 4 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 equipment approved for the HOFFMANN H36 DIMONA is listed in the HOFFMANN H36 DIMONA Master Equipment List dated November 15, 1985.
