DG Flugzeugbau GmbH Proposes Airworthiness Directive for DG-500 Elan Series Sailplanes
Summary
DG Flugzeugbau GmbH is proposing an airworthiness directive to address improper movement in the elevator control system of certain DG-500 Elan Series, DG-500M, and DG-500MB sailplanes, which could limit a pilot's ability to use full elevator control deflection and potentially lead to uncontrolled flight conditions.
