Default AD for Blanik revised

You're not wrong. The AD has been approved by EASA because the TC-holder is
based in the European Union. I would expect the FAA to make a decision for
the US aircraft only after the original AD had been approved (by EASA).

this has not been done yet to my understanding...

EASA have revised their AD that grounded the Blaniks in 2010/2011. It

now
also explicitly states the Aircraft Industries/Blanik Ltd. modification

is
considered a terminating action for the AD (i.e.: modify it and you can

fly
it).
