Already in 1995 DG\u2019s engineers had started thinking about a mechanism which would support an emergency bailout. The development began rapidly. Together with Augsburg\u2019s former balloon factory and engineer Thomas Matuschak a system was designed which should simplify and above all make an emergency bailing out of a sailplane\u2019s cockpit easy. In 2002 NOAH (short form of the German expression \u201cNOtAusstiegsHilfe\u201d) was then officially approved. Since that time, DG Flugzeugbau has been offering this important safety feature for all DG-single seaters as well as with our LS8 and LS10.<\/p>\n
Most pilots are well aware that an emergency bailout is an issue of only seconds. However, according to the German Federal Aviation Office\u2019s (Luftfahrt-Bundesamt) accident statistics, half of all accidents that required a bailout ended fatally.<\/p>\n

Zusammen mit der Ballonfabrik Augsburg und dem Ingenieur Thomas Matuschak wurde ein System Entwickelt, welches den Notausstieg aus einem Segelflugzeug vereinfachen und vor allem erleichtern sollte. 2002 wurde das NOAH offiziell zugelassen. DG Flugzeugbau bietet seither f\u00fcr alle DG-Einsitzer sowie f\u00fcr die LS8 und LS10 dieses wichtige Sicherheitsfeature an.<\/p> Dass es beim Notausstieg aus einem Segelflugzeug um Sekunden geht, ist den meisten Piloten bewusst. Dennoch, so belegen die Unfallzahlen des Luftfahrtbundesamtes, endet die H\u00e4lfte aller Unf\u00e4lle, bei denen ein schneller Notausstieg erforderlich gewesen w\u00e4re, t\u00f6dlich.<\/p> Der schnelle Notausstieg wird in der Regel durch mehrere Faktoren erschwert:<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=\"Zeile\"][et_pb_column type=\"2_3\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Das patentierte NOAH-System erm\u00f6glicht dem Piloten eines Segelflugzeuges den Notausstieg in k\u00fcrzester Zeit. Hauptmerkmal des Systems ist ein mit Hochdruck aufblasbares Luftkissen, vergleichbar mit einem Airbag aus der Automobilbranche, das unter dem Piloten in der Sitzschale angebracht ist. \u00dcber einen Griff kann dieses Luftkissen innerhalb einer Sekunde aufgeblasen werden und dr\u00fcckt so den Piloten sicher aus dem Cockpit. Der Notausstieg wird damit auf einen Bruchteil der sonst \u00fcblichen Zeit reduziert.<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_3\"][et_pb_video admin_label=\"Video\" src=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/paDcDvF0aSM\" \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=\"Zeile\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\"][et_pb_divider admin_label=\"Teiler\" color=\"#ffffff\" show_divider=\"off\" divider_style=\"solid\" divider_position=\"top\" hide_on_mobile=\"on\" \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=\"Zeile\"][et_pb_column type=\"2_3\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Das gefaltete NOAH Kissen ist platzsparend unter dem Sitzkissen an der Sitzschale befestigt. Es ist \u00fcber einen Schlauch mit einer kleinen Hochdruckflasche verbunden die \u00fcber ein Ventil verf\u00fcgt.<\/p> Der zum NOAH geh\u00f6rende Bet\u00e4tigungsgriff sitzt gut erreichbar an der Bordwand im Flugzeug. Bei Bet\u00e4tigung entriegelt er automatisch das Gurtschloss und \u00f6ffnet das Ventil der Druckflasche. Mit 200bar Druck wird daraufhin das Kissen innerhalb 1 Sekunde aufgeblasen und dr\u00fcckt den Piloten \u00fcber die Bordwand hinaus nach oben.<\/p> Um zu verhindern, dass der Pilot gegen die Haube schl\u00e4gt, ist die Ausl\u00f6sung nur bei abgeworfener Haube m\u00f6glich.<\/p> Damit reduziert sich der Notausstieg auf lediglich 2 Schritte:<\/p> \u00a0<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_3\"][et_pb_image admin_label=\"Bild\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/RTEmagicC_13464f496b.gif.gif\" show_in_lightbox=\"off\" url_new_window=\"off\" use_overlay=\"off\" animation=\"off\" sticky=\"off\" align=\"left\" force_fullwidth=\"off\" always_center_on_mobile=\"on\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\" \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=\"Zeile\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Technische Daten:<\/strong> Mit der TM DG-G-11 wurde 2015 das NOAH System weiter verbessert. So verf\u00fcgt die NOAH Flasche nun \u00fcber ein Manometer, welches das einfache \u00dcberpr\u00fcfen des Drucks erm\u00f6glicht. Mit einem ge\u00e4nderten Kissen wurde der Prozess des Aufblasens verbessert und noch sicherer gemacht.<\/p> Erfreulicher Weise kann das NOAH nun auch in verschiedene Typen der Firmen Schempp-Hirth und Alexander-Schleicher eingebaut werden. N\u00e4here Informationen hierzu sind \u00fcber den LTB G\u00fcntert + Kohlmetz erh\u00e4ltlich.<\/p> Michael Eisele war als Mitglied der Deutschen Nationalmannschaft 2017 Teilnehmer an der Weltmeisterschaft in Benalla\/Australien. Der durch schwieriges Wetter und ausgepr\u00e4gte Pulk-Fliegerei gepr\u00e4gte Wettbewerb musste eine Vielzahl an Beinahezusammenst\u00f6\u00dfen verzeichnen. Leider kam es dabei auch zu einem Zusammensto\u00df zwischen Michael und einem anderen Wettbewerbspiloten. Beide mussten das Flugzeug in der Luft verlassen. Michael schildert seine Eindr\u00fccke zu diesem Vorfall wie folgt:<\/p> \"Nach meinem Zusammensto\u00df bei der Segelflug-WM in Australien, hatte ich das Gl\u00fcck, dass sich mein Flugzeug in einer relativ vorteilhaften Fluglage befand und ich somit mit geringem H\u00f6henverlust und wenig G-Belastung aussteigen konnte.\u00a0Der andere Pilot hatte dieses Gl\u00fcck leider nicht\u00a0und musste aus einer Trudelbewegung heraus sehr hohe G-Kr\u00e4fte \u00fcberwinden, um aus dem Cockpit zu springen. Dieser Vorgang hat \u00fcber 1000 H\u00f6henmeter ben\u00f6tigt und ist gl\u00fccklicherweise positiv ausgegangen. Das NOAH-System h\u00e4tte hier definitiv wertvollste Dienste geleistet. Dieser Unfall und die damit verbundenen Erlebnisse haben mir die Augen ge\u00f6ffnet und mein n\u00e4chstes\u00a0Flugzeug wird, unabh\u00e4ngig vom Typ, auf jeden Fall mit einem NOAH Rettungssystem ausgestattet.\u00a0Der Kostenaspekt darf bei den heutigen Flugzeug- und Zubeh\u00f6rpreisen kein Argument gegen eine solch Lebensrettende Ausstattung sein.\"<\/em><\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","_et_gb_content_width":"","_trash_the_other_posts":false,"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13615"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13615"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13615\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21753,"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13615\/revisions\/21753"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13414"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dg-aviation.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Prompt bailout thanks to NOAH<\/h2>\n
