DUAL GENERATOR FAILURE OF THE ROTAX 915iS AND 916iS ENGINES

Dear AutoGyro pilots and AutoGyro customers,

As you have probably noticed, we have published a Service Bulletin on the topic of “Dual Generator Failure” of the Rotax 915iS and 916iS engines and informed the DULV* and other supervisory authorities.

The DULV* has turned this service bulletin into an LTA* and prohibited the flight operations of the affected aircraft in Germany.

To rectify this problem, Rotax have published Service bulletin SB-912 i-016iS_SB-915 i-016iS_SB-916 i-006iS (accessible via: https://www.flyrotax.com/p/service/technical-documentation Technical documentation | Manuals | Rotax Aircraft Engines). Please contact your service partner to organise the inspection required. We are happy to answer any questions you may have via email: airworthiness@auto-gyro.com.
