Ich habe die Sendung auch gesehen. Und sie ließ bei mir nur die Frage "Wieviel Leistung mehr als ein Serientriebwerk?" offen.Rotorhead schrieb:Galileo, meine lieblings Comedy-Sendung. :D
Der Hubschrauber hat also ein leistungsstärkeres Triebwerk bekommen.
Das ist ja eine Galileo-typisch nützliche Information.
Leistungsstärker als was? Als das was vorher drin war?
Las mich raten, die haben natürlich nicht gesagt was für ein Triebwerk das war, geschweige denn ob es Abweichungen vom Serienmodell gab.
QuelleCAAN refutes chopper landing on Everest summit
KOL Report
KATHMANDU, June 3 - The Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal Thursday said that the landing of the Eurocopter helicopter on the peak of Mt. Everest has not been confirmed.
Earlier, international media had reported that the Eurocopter’s Ecureuil chopper had landed on the top of the Everest creating the world record for the highest altitude landing.
CAAN, in a statement yesterday, clarified that the news carried by the international media was false.
Eurocopter, issuing a statement on May 24 in Paris, had said its chopper Ecureuil A Star AS 350 B3 piloted by Didier Delsalle, achieved the feat of landing on the top of the world’s highest peak on May 14.
The CAAN had formed a committee to investigate of the said landing when it was only permitted to test fly over the Everest region.
Upon inquiry, the captain of the flight Didier Delsalle in a written explanation has said that it was impossible to land because of the adverse topography, the CAAN said.
“Delsalle had only made emergency landing some 1000 metres below at the South Col due to bad weather and therefore the landing cannot be confirmed,” the statement said.
“The helicopter had not demanded permission for landing on the peak,” said the CAAN “and therefore no permit had been given and such imaginary publicity by the Eurocopter is regretted.”
The permission for the test flight has been withdrawn in view of the sensitivity from the available information as the conditions of the flight were violated, and the helicopter has been returned to Kathmandu, said the statement. (dds)
Mount Everest landing and take-off : Eurocopter statement
Marignane, June 7, 2005
Further to the Civil Aviation Authorities of Nepal (CAAN) statement released from Katmandou on June 3rd, 2005, Eurocopter does confirm that its serial Ecureuil AS 350B3 did achieve the World Record performance of high altitude landing and take-off on Mount Everest (8850m) on May 14th and 15th 2005 as per FAI (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale) standards.
Eurocopter regrets the misunderstanding with the CAAN.
Indeed the permission given by the CAAN to the Eurocopter team was very clear and did concern “Everest High Altitude Heli Flight Test”, including landings and take-offs” as per Eurocopter flight test programme given to CAAN in March 2005.
This Mount Everest landing and take-off feat has been performed under control of a FAI Official Observer and according to the FAI rules, i.e. “the touch down/take-off ensure that the rotorcraft maintains contact with the ground at least 2mn”.
This World Record is currently under validation.
As shown in the video on our Eurocopter website (www.eurocopter.com/everest ) this was the case as the Ecureuil AS350B3 remained landed 3mn 50 on May 14th and over 4mn on the next day.
Die Kamera sitzt vorne, das Anti-Colli oben. Eurocopter bastelt dir 32.. Kameras um ein Anti-Colli. Kostet halt und wiegt etwas.Rotorhead schrieb:Das anti collision light fehlt. In diesem Fall geht es jedoch nicht um Gewichtsersparnis, sondern schlicht und einfach um den Einbau einer Kamera, die den Platz des Lichtes eingenommen hat.
.. und bei den Deckeln wurde auf den Lack verzichtet.. warum nicht die ganze Maschine in Grundierung? ;)Rotorhead schrieb:Bei den Lichtern wurde allerdings tatsächlich gespart....
Der Marketing Clou ist ja der, das Eurocopter sagen kann: Du kannst genau das kaufen was auf dem höchsten Punkt der Erde gelandet ist. Der Rekord wäre einfach nicht so spektakulär wenn z.B. die Hydraulik modifiziert worden wäre. Ich glaube nicht das Eurocopter da schummelt. Das werden die Marketing mäßig schon ordentlich aufgezogen haben.
An Bell glaube ich weniger. Eher an die vorherigen Rekordhalter... Indien..Rotorhead schrieb:Also ich frage mich echt was hinter der Reaktion der CAAN steckt.
Vielleicht hat Bell da ein bisschen … nachgeholfen.

Make no bones about it, this is a major accomplishment, far beyond what anyone has done. It is clear that the aircraft was over stressed (in a manner of speaking) and it was not a "serial" aircraft from that respect. In other words, if I go 20% over gross weight, or 20% beyond published torque limits, I can't claim it was done with a "normal" aircraft. NASCAR fans understant this well, and won't try to go 200 mph because a "stock" car did so at Daytona.
