TCDS A57CE

Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH

Historical Aircraft Small Airplane Rev 17 12/22/2014 drs.faa.gov ↗

Models covered (8)

Special Airworthiness Information Bulletins (2)

Advisory bulletins on these airframes. Not mandatory like ADs — but operators tracking AD compliance often miss the SAIB on the same component.

  • CE-08-45 Electrical - Airplane Flight Manual- Lightning Strike Procedures- Amendment
  • CE-07-38 Airplane Flight Manual Clarification

Special Conditions + ELOS findings

Certification-time deviations: SCs add requirements where the design is novel; ELOS allows alternative compliance. Most modern types have both.
