(Australia) L-13 Blanik Llewllyn Mod dwg
Does anyone in OZ have a copy of the dwg or STC that makes an L-13
into an L-13A1 with a 12000 hr life? It is hard copy from the 70's, I am hoping someone will scan it in and post it somewhere. Dwg is called 78-E-1, invoked per AU STC 96.1 TIA; aerodyne |

Mike,
the GFA has just a day or so back moved to a new website ,it contains this page: http://www.gfa.org.au/imis15/GFA/Air...2-cc154463ba5a but the link at the bottom seems to go nowhere. Try poking around there, or contact them directly. Regards, Bernie. |

Mike, according to the current schedule, the former Australian sailplane airworthiness authority John Ashford will be at the ESA Western Workshop in Tehachapi next weekend. I've emailed him on this topic previously, and I have it in mind to see if I can talk with him further at the workshop. If you can make it to this workshop, it might be your best opportunity to learn what there is to be known about the A1 mod and how applicable it might be to the current L13 situation. Thanks, Bob K. |

Those links don't work, and the sketch shows the affected area, not
the Mod. I do research for a living. I need to find someone who has the hard copy of the Mod Dwg as requested. I already tried to contact ALL the registered A1 blanik owners in OZ. Only one has a valid email. I tried to get John's Ashfords number or contact info, that has not been sent yet. I submitted a plea for help to the workshop, to make this a special topic, was denied. I will be there both days anyway. Hope to see a few Blanik folks there at least. Taking vacation this week so I can do more research. We have a real time X ray here at my work, I am on my way there now. Aerodine |

On the [Aus-Soaring] newsgroup, there is a lot of talk of the Blanik
ADs. It seems like all the VH-registered L13s are grounded. Perhaps the few which (can you believe) have low time already received their "get out of jail free" card. Meanwhile more than a few clubs are scrambling to get replacement trainers while their Blaniks are down. Jim |

I'm surprised your research skills didn't lead you to this:

I find John Ashford this morning, and verified that that you did talk with him about the Llewellyn modification. Unfortunately, as you know, the situation there looks bleak; nobody seems to know where the tooling is. It might be that the only prospect would be to reverse- engineer the mod from an example. Thanks, Bob K. |
