Subject: FOLA Airsafe Life Vests Type A-190 or A-290
Luftfartsstyrelsen, representing the State of Design of the affected
equipment, issued the referenced AD (attached as page 2 of this notice)

Airsafe A-290 may have an error on the zippers from assembly at
the factory. If an incorrect zipper is installed, this could lead to an
uncontrolled inflation of the life vest.
