In Canada, there is a page on the TC website where you can type in your registration, and it spits out all the Directives related to your airframe, engine and propeller. Quite handy. I was using it yesterday to inspect a Bellanca. Is there such a page in the UK, with the CAA? I sure can't find it.

My concern is with the Hurricane IV we fly at VWoC. I've heard that there is an AD issued against wings built by the fellow who built ours. But I can't locate it.

Thanks!

Dave

I came across this (you may have already been there too):

http://www.caa.co.uk/Commercial-industry/Aircraft/Airworthiness/Continuing-airworthiness/Airworthiness-Directives/

There's links to two documents, CAP 476 and CAP 747, which list the CAA ADs and their associated Service Bulletin numbers. I did a quick search for anything Hurricane related, although in this case they might be under a company name other than "Hawker".

If all else fails, there's a link to contact the CAA's AD Unit as well.

Dave, another suggestion, post question on flypast historic forum, there may be someone in the know on there.

Try the CAA's GINFO site. I don't think it gvies the sort of information you are looking for but there are various links on the entries which might help.
