Applies only to engines with engine exhaust muffler, P/N 979402 (Group A serials) or P/N 979402/979404 (Group B serials), installed, per Table 1 of the AD. Installed on, but not limited to, Aeromot-Industria Mecanico Metalurgica AMT-300 (Turbo Ximango Shark), Diamond Aircraft Industries HK 36 TTS/TTC/TTC-ECO, and Stemme GmbH & Co.

Whether AD E8-30049 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD E8-30049 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
