ED Decision 2021/013/R

Regular update of CS-22 — CS-22 Amendment 3

This Decision introduces the following amendments to CS-22:

  • amendments following a safety recommendation related to the unintended opening of air brakes,
  • amendments following a safety recommendation related to the operation of the cable release mechanism during launch, and
  • miscellaneous amendments that have been prepared in coordination with the Sailplane Development Panel (SDP), reflecting the state of the art as regards the certification of sailplanes and powered sailplanes. 

The amendments are expected to provide a moderate safety benefit, would have no social or environmental impacts, and would provide some economic benefits by removing redundant details in the certification process.
