It **revokes** (cancels) and immediately **remakes** an existing Airworthiness Directive (AD) for a specific type of aircraft — the **Gyroflug SC01 B-160 (Speed Canard)** series aeroplanes.\n\nAn **Airworthiness Directive** is a mandatory safety notice issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). It requires aircraft owners or operators to take specific actions — such as inspections, repairs, or modifications — to address unsafe conditions in an aircraft design.\n\n**What actually happens here:**\n\n- The existing directive **AD/GYRO/1** (titled \"Airworthiness Limitations\") is cancelled\n- It is immediately reissued as a **separate, standalone instrument** in exactly the same form\n\n**Why do this?**\n\nThis is a **technical restructuring** under the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998. CASA is converting old-style Airworthiness Directives into new, individually numbered legislative instruments. This makes each directive easier to find, reference, and track — without changing any of the actual safety requirements.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n\n- Owners and operators of Gyroflug SC01 B-160 (Speed Canard) aircraft\n- Maintenance engineers working on these aircraft\n- Anyone responsible for ensuring these aircraft remain legally airworthy\n\n**Why it matters:**\n\nWhile the safety content doesn't change, the legal form does. Aircraft operators must ensure they are complying with the **remade** version of the directive, now issued as a separate instrument under the new regulatory framework. Failure to follow an Airworthiness Directive makes an aircraft unairworthy and illegal to fly."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl","history":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl/history","analysis":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/airworthiness-directives-2004-revocation-and-remaking-gyroflug-sc01-b-160-speed-canard-series-aeropl/documents"}}
