LAA MANDATORY MODIFICATIONS
Modifications made MANDATORY by LAA Engineering. These must be read in conjunction with LAA Engineering TADS Type 47.
PROTOTYPE MODIFICATIONS
Standard Type Modifications (or REPEATS) agreed with LAA Engineering covering the most common types of Mod requested by Builders to incorporate into their Project. It is also intended to clarify some areas of uncertainty in the original 047 Series Drawing Sets purchased. Remember, these Mods are still subject to LAA Engineering final acceptance procedures such as your normal Log Book entry, a ‘Repeat Mod Implementation Slip’ and so on. Full details can be found at http://www.lightaircraftassociation.co.uk/engineering/engineeringfees.html
However, if you wish to implement your own unique Modification, you should apply to LAA Engineering in the normal way.
MOST IMPORTANT : WHEN DOWNLOADING DRAWING SETS, ENSURE THAT A COMPLETE SET IS RUN OFF, OTHERWISE IMPORTANT DATA COULD BE MISSED. ALL DRAWINGS CLEARLY SHOW THE FULL NUMBER OF PAGES THAT COMPLETE THE SET. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR MOD 10595 - PULLEYS & CABLE RUNS.
Also shown are some other Builders mods that may be of interest along with a number of Engineering Concessions.
