## Abstract

The FAA revises Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2003-19-14 which applies to all BURKHART GROB LUFT--UND RAUMFAHRT GmbH & CO KG (GROB) Models G103 TWIN ASTIR, G103 TWIN II, G103A TWIN II ACRO, and G103C TWIN III ACRO sailplanes. AD 2003-19-14 currently requires you to modify the airspeed indicators, install flight speed reduction and aerobatic maneuver restrictions placards (as applicable), and revise the flight and maintenance manual. This AD retains all the actions in AD 2003-19-14 for all Model G103 TWIN ASTIR sailplanes, removes Model G103 TWIN II from the applicability, and retains the aerobatic maneuver restriction for Model G103C TWIN III ACRO sailplanes. This AD also requires you to revise the modification to airspeed indicators, install a revised flight speed reduction placard, and revise the flight and maintenance manual for certain Models G103A TWIN II ACRO, and G103C TWIN III ACRO sailplanes. Simple Aerobatic maneuvers are also re- approved for Model G103A TWIN II ACRO sailplanes. An option for modifying the rear fuselage for Models G103A TWIN II ACRO and G103C TWIN III ACRO sailplanes that terminates the flight limitation restrictions for aerobatic maneuvers is also included in this AD.
