Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Extra Flugzeugbau, GmbH. (Extra) Model EA-300/200 airplanes. This action requires installing a seat belt safety cover. A recent report of an Extra Model EA-300/200 airplane seat belt falling into the rear rudder pedal controls, interfering with the rudder pedals, and causing loss of directional control prompted this action. The action specified by this AD is intended to prevent a loss of directional control caused by seat belt interference with the rear rudder pedal controls, which could cause loss of control of the airplane.
