Regulator connector brackets for ROTAX Aircraft Engines

The regulator connector bracket assemblies are not a part of the Engine Type Design. The regulator connector bracket assemblies have been tested and released by BRP-Rotax, but they are not certified. The certification of the connector bracket assemblies is the responsibility of the aircraft manufacturer and must be carried out jointly with the aircraft.
