Paragliders of the Czech manufacturers
PARAGLIDERS
Paragliders of the Czech manufacturers
There are several very successful companies in the
Czech Republic, developing and producing paragliders.
Every year they introduce a range of new types, whose
performance and other features surpass the previous
one. These companies have given wings to three thou-
sand paraglider pilots in the Czech Republic alone and
other tens of thousands the world over. This catalogue
lists currently manufactured single-place paragliders,
top-notch racing paragliders, tandem paragliders and
many kinds of special paragliders.
The suitability of the given type of paraglider for the specific skill level of its potential pilot is shown on a colour scale. The scale
shows the range of skill from an absolute beginner to the most experienced pilot. The sizes of the canopy are shown according to
their respective manufacturers’ methods of designation. The weights listed are the take-off ones (weight of pilot including full equipment, weighing from 15 to 20 kg for free paragliding and 40 kg for flying with paramotors).

Company Galaxy High Technology,
s.r.o., is a prominent European producer of parachute ballistic rescue systems aimed for ultralights, light sport aircraft, unmanned Aircraft and
experimentals ranging up to speed of 350 km/h.
The company exports 90% of its production to all
continents.Overall year production represents ca.
700 units of 53 different modifications. Thanks to its
long tradition,since 1984, the systems GRS are constantly updated and enhanced. Our company does
not pursue development of parachutes only for
high speeds, but during the long testing the company pay special attention to quick opening in low
speeds enabling a safe rescue from lowest possible heights. Ever growing number of customers
testifies not only to the product quality but about
a good marketing and service as well. Customers
like to hear our slogan:
“CHANCE FOR RESCUE
FROM ANY HEIGHT”
Since 1994 the U.S.H. Production of Rescue
Systems is developing, producing and providing after sales support to the ballistic
deployed parachute systems. They use for
their operation energy of a rocket motor.
While the majority of USH’s BR systems
were installed in the UL aircraft, currently
a system for aircraft of the LSA category, so
widespread in the USA, is being developed.
It has to cater for the higher, 600 kg weight.
The parameters and quality of the already
developed and approved products of the
USH are being constantly upgraded. They
are also approved by the Czech LAA authority and by the German DULV, while the pyrotechnic components are also approved and
conform to Czech and German regulations.
Since 1994 the USH regularly participates at
the Aero Friedrichshafen fair.

AUTHORITIES
LAA ČR Microlight Certification Process
Microlight Technical Certification is one of the key LAA ČR activity.
65 LAA ČR Type Certificates have been issued since 1990!
Certification Administration
• The LAA ČR system of proving the airworthiness is based on
technical inspectors. For the three-axis control UL category
there are 24 appointed inspectors.
• The technical inspectors are appointed and managed by the
Chief Technical Inspector, who is an employee of the LAA ČR.
• The inspectors are not employees of the LAA ČR and their duty
is carried out on the voluntary (activist) basis.
• The inspectors are spread regionally accross the Czech
Republic.
• The inspectors file their registers of aircraft and have allotted
their identification letters in the registration mark.
LAA ČR recognises 3 types of technical certificates:
„Z“
a technical certificate (TC) of airworthiness of a prototype of an
aeroplane, built by an individual builder. The documentation of
the basic calculation is required; a building process supervision
by the technical inspector and at least strength test of the wing
is mandatory.
Validity of the TC = 1 year
„P“
a technical certificate of airworthiness of an aeroplane that was
granted a LAA ČR type certificate. A comprehensive range of
stress (load) tests is carried out and the aircraft is tested up to
ultimate (maximum calculated) loads. The approval procedure
is carried out as an opponency. The final decision lies with the
Technical commission of the LAA, where 10 top class specialists
convene and decide. The technical commission is managed by
the Chief Technical Inspector. The complete documentation is
filed in the LAA ČR archive. The result of the process is the Type
certificate.
Validity of the TC = 2 years
„A“
a technical certificate of airworthiness of an aeroplane, amateur/home-built according to a documentation of aeroplane that
was granted a Type certificate. The documentation has to be
purchased officially from the Type certificate holder. The technical
inspector carries out the supervision during the building process;
a wing stress test to the maximum operational (limit) load is
always required.
Validity of the TC = 2 years.
38
LAA ČR Concept of Certification Stress/Strength Tests
• Serve to prove the basic structural strength of all primary
structure parts of the aircraft, such as wing, fuselage, empennage etc.
• Each structure has to pass a system of strength tests covering
the requirements of the regulations to at least the calculated
limit loads.
• The tests are carried out by the manufacturer under the supervision from the LAA ČR.
• Simple loading methods are used.
• The tests are carried out until the calculated limit stress/load
is achieved.
• The visual checks and measurements of the deformation are
carried out too.
• Wings ultimate strength (loading to destruction) tests are preferred to ascertain the actual strength reserves of the airframe
– for „P“ Technical Certificate.
• The failed critical points of structures are often appropriately
strengthened and the tests are repeated to find eventual other
critical points.
• The tests results are in case of failures compared to the design
calculations and thus they serve to precise design calculation
methods.

Universal, electrical flaps actuator UFA−900L
The electrical flaps actuator offers to the pilot not only more comfort but also increases the security.
During operation with mechanical flaps there are possible unwanted changes of the flight attitude
caused by: - insufficient space in the cockpit
- flaps lever is too long or in improper position and therefore abrupt flaps setting
The positions of the electrical flaps depending on the aircraft model are easy programmable by everyone. There are only 2 buttons on the backside of the control unit for programming the requested
flaps positions. When the flap positions are programmed, the compact electrical actuator brings the
flaps in the correct position by a simple change of the lever position.
The LED-indicator of the last flaps position lights until the next resp. requested position is reached.
During this time flashes the LED-indicator of the requested position given by the lever. If the force
exceeds the programmed limit (e.g. by flaps setting during too high flight speed), the flaps return
to the previous, lower position. Also reaching of this flaps position and the activation of the security
system is indicated by the LED-indicator and so is the pilot advised to his mistake.
Because of reliability reason, for the changing the flaps position instead of an electrical switch we
have used a mechanical lever which position is checked by 4 Hall-sensors (non contact switch).

The ARTI - Aviation Research and Test Institute (VZLÚ - Výzkumný a zkušební
letecký ústav) develops and supplies some special scientific instruments
and equipment designed to be used for experiments and measurements
undertaken in the space. Among its most important tasks belongs the
development of the high-precision micro-accelerometers for measuring the
extremely small accelerations in the spacecraft. These very accurate devices
enable to measure the effects of non-gravitational forces on the parameters
of trajectory of the artificial satellites, orbiting the Earth. Subsequently the
processed data enable to produce and make more accurate the dynamic
models of the Earth’s thermosphere. Currently the ARTI/VZLÚ participates in
the SWARM project, part of the “Earth observation “programme, supported
by ESA. The project is devoted to the research of the magnetic field of the
Earth and the near space environment, with the EADS Astrium concern
serving as the main implementer and prime contractor. The purpose of the
order for the ARTI/VZLÚ is a supply of one engineering model and three flight
examples of the micro-accelerometer for measuring accelerations of low
frequencies and amplitudes. Besides the SW also the EGSE - a ground test
unit - is included in the scope of the task.

Space research and development have
a long tradition in the Czech Republic starting back in October 1969. In 1978, the
first Czech astronaut Vladimir Remek spent
6 days on-board of the Salyut 6 orbital station and Czechoslovakians thus became
the third nation to enter the space. The first
Czech satellite Magion 1 reached its orbit
in October 1978. The Automated Stabilised
Platform was the most sophisticated space
equipment manufactured in Czechoslovakia.
It was used on the Soviet Vega Spacecrafts
in 80’s and also installed on the Mir orbital
station. Second half of 90’s brought increasing level of cooperation with the European
Space Agency (ESA), which culminated in
November 2008 when the Czech Republic
became the ESA full member. Starting from
the 2010, the Czech Republic is also full
member of EUMETSAT.
The ESA membership has opened new opportunities for Czech companies and institutions
engaged in space. The Czech Republic has
committed 45.6 million Euro to the ESA programmes until 2013. Space related research
and innovation projects are also eligible to
get funding from the Czech Grant Agency,
the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Czech
Academy of Sciences and universities.
The Czech Space Office (CSO) is the national information and advisory centre for
space opportunities and activities in the
Czech Republic and serves the national
space community as the central contact
point for communication with ESA. The CSO
has close relations with the Association of
the Aviation Manufacturers and Czech Space
Alliance, two bodies where larger companies
and SMS, respectively, of the Czech space
industry are organised.
The space industry is one of the new emerging sectors in the Czech Republic. Several
Czech manufacturing companies have already a contract to supply mechanical and/or
electronic parts and sensors for satellites.
Apart from companies already approved to
deliver to the space, there are many with
a potential to transfer their technological
skills into the space sector. The main Czech
hardware competencies include materials
thermal processing; high-precision mechanical parts and assemblies; PCB assembling
in a clean room; mechanical, structural and
environmental testing; high-quality opticalmechanical/-electronic devices; telecommunication systems; robotic systems and
nanotechnology products. In the field of
software development, the major skills cover
vehicles health monitoring, flight/ground segment software, complex software solutions,
solutions for safety-critical systems, digital
image processing and signal processing.

Brno University of Technology
in the aerospace research and development
The aviation education has a long−standing tradition at the universities
of Brno; it brought, besides e.g. the development of the turbine aero
engines, also some pioneering aircraft designs and high−performance
gliders of the thirties and sixties.
In 1982 at the Brno University of Technology the Aviation Department
has been re-established and in 1993 the University had founded its
Institute of Aerospace Engineering (IAE), led by prof. Ing. Antotnín
Píštěk, CSc., as a part of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
IAE belongs to very few institutes in Czech Republic, who offer
university degree study in aerospace. It covers wide range of speciali­
zations in 2 master´s and 1 bachelor´s study programmes. The Institute
offers master degree in "Aircraft Design" and in "Aeronautical Traffic",
bachelor´s study for "Professional Pilots" and also the doctoral (PhD)
studies. The work of the IAE is from the beginning aimed at a close
cooperation with companies of the Czech aerospace industry.
In 2000 the Aerospace Research Centre (ARC) has been created, based on the programme of research centres of the Ministry
of Youth, Education and Sports of the Czech Republic (MŠMT). The
Aerospace Research Centre's work is supervised by a fifteen−member
council, with an absolute majority of industry representatives, thus the
Centre ensures a transfer of research results to the aviation industry
and the feedback of the industry knowledge to the research sites.
The activities of the IAE and ARC are aimed at aerodynamics, modern technologies and materials, systems' reliability, hydraulic systems,
space research and at the aeronautical structures, strength and life
of aircraft and also at the economic aspects of the aircraft development.
An important asset of the IAE is the test facility with the Czech CAA
certificate for static and fatigue testing of aircraft structures.
The wide scope of work is documented by some of the many tasks in
which the IAE participated or participates. Here belong e.g. the:
● The development of the KP−2U Sova ultralight and its further upgrading.
●Collaboration in the development of the Aero Ae-270.
●Collaboration in the development of the JA600 Light Sport Aircraft
for Jihlavan Airplanes.
