Thank you Ian, for your work to connect people with L13 with people
with older 2 seaters for interim loan, hire, etc.
Those who offered 2 seaters on the list might like to either join that
matching service or look at the loan, hire, etc. methods being used
with an eye to the capital capabilities of the clubs affected.
The factory email to me:
Dear L13, L13A BLANIK operators,
Let me call your attention to new issued EASA AD No.: 2010-0160-E dated
30.7. 2010. Its full text is attached.
The AD establishes stricter conditions for next operation of the L13,
L13A BLANIK with immediate validity.
The gliders whose complete history of flight spectrum is not proved are
prohibited to operate.
Acrobatic flights are prohibited.
The gliders whose flight limits were exceed more than 50% of dual
flights and/or acrobatic flights are more then 2% and/or the gliders
flew more than 5 take offs per 1 flight hour – the gliders are
grounded.
By this information all evaluations and statements issued by Aircraft
Industries, a.s. till today loose their validity. If the gliders do not
comply with the conditions mentioned hereinabove their next operation
is prohibited.
We are sorry for this information. However we are in intensive deal
with EASA and we try to find a solution.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards
Bohumila Krizkova

At Monarto we have 3 other 2 seaters on-field, so our L13 can sit while
the issue clarifies.
Ours met all the administrative and visual check tests, so we will wait
for clarifications whether the factory has a different view on what
proves complete history of flight spectrum.
