This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Stemme
GmbH & Co. KG (Stemme) Model S10 sailplanes. This AD requires replacing the O-ring that is installed in the mounting part of the pitot tube (in the propeller dome) with one of improved design. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the pitot tube O-ring caused by an ineffective design, which could result in the pitot tube falling out and the sailplane pilot losing airspeed
indications.
