Rotax AD

[Admin]

Just received this email from CASA about an urgent Rotax AD...will add it to the AD/AN section when it is released by Recreational Aviation Australia but in the mean time:

 

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority has published the following urgent Airworthiness Directive:

 

Rotax Piston Engines

 

2012-0019-E - Engine Oil - Oil Pump and Attachment Bolts - Inspection

 

This, and other Airworthiness Directives can be viewed at:

I have to say it gives me some confidence in Rotax as a manufacturer when their last few ADs have been from potential faults discovered in a manufacturing review rather than actual faults discovered from in-flight failures.
