We can inform you that all the necessary tests and verifications that we have to carry out before the flight tests have been completed. Weather permitting, the flight tests are scheduled for this week. Once the results have been evaluated and processed, they will be forwarded directly to EASA. We are already physically modifying the adapter disks sent to us and as soon as the EASA approval is available, the wings will be returned to the customers.
The existing lifetime limit of these disks (50h engine use or 5 years, whichever comes first) will not change due to this modification. The new version of the disks is expected to be available in the autumn and these will have the same lifetime limitation as the existing disks.
