Airplanes\n\n**Type:** Proposed Rule\n**Published:** 2026-05-15\n**Citation:** 91 FR 27871\n**Agencies:** Transportation Department, Federal Aviation Administration\n**Source:** https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/15/2026-09772/airworthiness-directives-diamond-aircraft-industries-inc-airplanes\n\n## Abstract\nThe FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Diamond Aircraft Industries Inc. (DAI) Model DA20-C1 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a report of a certain emergency locator transmitter (ELT) not activating due to a missing jumper wire. This proposed AD would require a continuity inspection of the D-sub connector of the Artex ELT 1000 and, if necessary, corrective actions. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products."}
