18 Protector shock test Test ID Protect 1 Standard 2. DV LuftGerPV 1, Nr. 7 c Test standard : Requirements: Minimun height: Impact requirements: Repetitions: Harness attached to protector test dummy, in a similar way like a real pilot in flight. Impact will be simulated by dropping the dummy from a certain height (with and without reserve). To simulate the in-flight conditions, the airbag is inflated with pressurized air equalling an airspeed of 7m/s. Inflation has to be stopped at least 5 sec before impact. Impact will be measured by an accelerometer mounted on the dummy. (Impact measured in g s) 1.65 m (between lowest point test dummy and impact surface) +5g as absolute maximum; +38g during less than 7 msec; +2g during less than 25 msec. The test will be performed 2 times, minimum 1 hour and maximum 2 hours after the first impact (with airbag protectors this pause is not necessary). The 2 Max-values should not differ more than 2% Shock test 1: Impact at a height of 1.65m: Impact duration of+ 38 g (if any): Impact duration of +2 g (if any): Δ < 2 %?

20 Rescue deployment resistance test Test ID resc Standard Test standard : 2. DV LuftGerPV 1, Nr. 7 c The deployment of the rescue system has to be ensured in all circumstances, especially with a damaged glider. The pilot has to be able to deploy the rescue chute with a single pull out of the outer container, single handed and in an anatomical favorable direction. In order to simulate this, the test responsible deploys the rescue seated in the harness. In a similar way as in real flight. The deployment resistance is approximately measured by the load cell, which is placed between the hand of the test responsible and the rescue hand grip. On the other hand inadvertent deployment has to be fairly remote. Therefore a shear link has to withstand a minimum load. Requirements: Max force for single hand deployment: Min force to prevent unwanted opening: approx. 7 N approx. 2 N Measured peak to peak required force for deployment [dan]: Comment: 5.1 dan 7 TEST ID rescue deployment 1 Max 7 dan Min 2 dan 6 Pulling force in dan Annex TEST ID resc depl

21 Rescue deployment strap strength test Test ID resc strap Standard Test standard : EN & 2. DV LuftGerPV 1, Nr. 7 c (EN 12491) & (LTF) The handgrip of the outer container has to be connected to the inner container with a removable loop in a way that it is possible to use the inner container with different types of outer containers. The connection between handgrip and inner container has to have sufficient load capacity/structural strength in any situation that may arise during normal operation. In order to verify this, the connection is tested on its tensile strength by a default tensile testing setup. In addition to this the breaking resistance will also be measured.
