Default IS-28B2 Twin Lark - Service Life Extension Program

Our club has two -28's, one with significant damage after a hangar collapse. Can you provide contact info to obtain the STC allowing life extension please?

Thanks,

John

Brett, our IS29's, that's 2 of them, which I own,in the UK ( single seat Larks) have been flying for over 1 year now. I sent my SB (Service Bulletin) to the USA and as far as far as I know they have used my glider-specific SB to be used for all IS29 gliders there.
Where are you located? If you contact me directly I can always arrange for you to have a copy. Pete
Awesome news. Any chance there's details of IS-29's ? And if not, any chance you can ask if they're included, excluded, not yet considered?


Hi Peter, I own an IS29D2 in Australia. Can't get your email address extracted from this reader - any chance you can ping me? My email is brett_pound (at) Hotmail.com.

I was in Hawaii and found out that a Lark was flying there. As I was told, if you have a Standard category aircraft the service limit does not apply in the US. One of our club members took up the effort with the FAA and ours is under going annual so that we can begin flying again.


Are you flying again?

Our club owns an I.C.A.-BRASOV IS-28B2 Twin Lark which is grounded because it has exceeded its 35 year factory maintenance program service life. About a year ago the current type certificate holder, S.C. Constructii Aeronautice S.A., announced it intended to submit a Service Life Extension Program (SLEP) to EASA - with follow-on submission to the FAA. We are no longer able to reach S.C. Constructii Aeronautice S.A. by phone - and they do not respond to emails. Can anyone shed any light on the status of the SLEP or offer any contact information for S.C. Constructii Aeronautice S.A.? We enjoy this ship and would like to return it to service.

Hi, my name is Pete Whitehead. I own an IS29D and also two IS-28B2's ( Twin Larks) in the UK.
MY friend has just received his Service Bulletin for his IS-29D, glider serial no. specific, from the Type Cert. Holders S.C. Constructii etc. He had to pay 1150 Euro for this bit of paper, but he will be flying again soon. I have been in touch, paid my 1150 Euro , and should receive the S.B for my own IS-29D in the next 7 days. The life extension is indefinite, subject to the inspection programme etc.
We have contacts with the Type Cert. Holder. I shall be next pursuing the provision of S.B's for my two IS-28B2's.

I am willing to negotiate ( on a voluntary basis) the S.B's for all IS-28B2 owners, provided you give me the info. re Type, Serial No., Date of manufacture, and also the number and date on your Service/maintenance manual for the glider. Clearly the Type Cert Holders are going to demand money per glider but we can see what we can do. Our contact is English speaking and now answers emails quickly, so there is some hope in the situation now.

Pete Whitehead .


Hello Pete, I am involved with a Canadian registered IS29D2 that is at the end of the service life. I would appreciate any assistance you can provide in order that we have something to present to Transport Canada that might allow a permanent resolve to the Canadian airworthiness Directive. Thanks in advance, mike

Please sent me both Service life Extension programms for IS28 and IS29 if they are available


Thank you very much!


Hello Did you ever receive anything regarding your request for the Service life extension on the Lark gliders? I am working with an owner here in Canada to get approval for his IS29D2 but have had no success.
Anything you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike
