    EASA has decided not to adopt FAA AD 2011-06-02 because the STC modification addressed in the FAA AD was designed by a European company and is therefore not under US design authority. EASA also determined that a momentary loss of electrical power to the engine control system in a single-engine aircraft is unlikely to result in an uncommanded shutdown. As such, no equivalent EASA AD will be issued and the STC modification for Cessna 172 aircraft is considered an optional one by EASA.

    EASA Decision not to adopt FAA AD 2011-06-02

    EASA Decision not to adopt FAA AD 2011-06-02

    Because FAA STC SA01303WI is the validation of LBA Germany EMZ (STC) SA1295 (later
    EASA.A.S.01527 and currently EASA STC 10014287), in the view of EASA, FAA AD 2011-06-
    02 is not a 'State of Design' AD for the affected STC modification, which is designed and
    owned by Thielert Aircraft Engine GmbH, a Europe-based company. For that reason, the AD
    does not fall within the scope of ED Decision 02/2003 and will not be considered for adoption.

    For the case of the Diamond DA42, where the propeller auto-feather system was activated by
    the power interruption, resulting in an uncommanded dual engine shutdown, EASA issued
    AD 2007-0182 (now at R1) and AD 2007-0183 (now at R2).

    EASA has determined that the safety issue described in the subject FAA AD is not an unsafe
    condition for single engine aeroplanes. Although EASA agrees that a momentary loss of
    electrical power to the FADEC could lead to a brief loss of engine power, this single
    (temporary) electrical failure is unlikely to result in an uncommanded engine shutdown.

    Consequently, no corresponding EASA AD will be issued for this subject for Cessna 172
    aeroplanes. EASA STC 10014287 is considered to be an optional modification.
