Rans S-6ES — Airworthiness Directives & records checklist
90 Rans S-6ESs are on the U.S. registry. Here’s what a records review covers for one — the Airworthiness Directives that apply, the known trouble spots, and the checklist a buyer or owner should hold every logbook against.
Airworthiness Directives that apply to the Rans S-6ES
No airframe ADs resolved for this model from the directive corpus — engine and propeller ADs still depend on the specific engine installed.
This is the applicability list. Which of these are complied with, their computed next-due dates, and the ADs that actually apply to your aircraft come from its digitized logbooks — that’s the verified report.
NTSB history on the type
7 recorded events on the Rans S-6ES type — 1 fatal, 1 destroyed, 6 substantial damage. A per-tail report checks whether this aircraft has an accident or damage record.
