NOT ADOPTED - EASA DECISION ATTACHED - SEE EASA AD 2021-0042

EASA Decision not to adopt UK CAA Airworthiness Directive G-2021-0012 addresses balloon types and models listed in UK and EASA type certificates. The decision confirms that EASA Airworthiness Directive 2021-0042 already covers the same technical requirements for inspections and replacement of certain stratus double burner hangers on these balloons. Therefore, EASA has chosen not to adopt the UK CAA AD separately.
