The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
We are rescinding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. The existing AD resulted from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: Since issuance of that AD, we have determined that the AD is not applicable because the Model LS6 is not type certificated in the United States. During flights at speeds between 250 to 270 km/h (135 to 145 kts) aileron flutter occurred resulting in damage of control stick attachment.
