An aircraft includes a fuel cell device which can be operated with hydrogen from a hydrogen tank and with oxygen drawn from the surrounding air, and further includes a superconducting magnetic energy storage unit (SMES unit) which is disposed, together with the hydrogen tank, in a cryogenic container, wherein the cryogenic container does not have an active cooling system or a liquid hydrogen generating device, and has a volume for holding a maximum of 40 kg liquid hydrogen.

Airplane with a fuel cell device

A maintenance information device and method for performing condition-based maintenance by monitoring of the condition of a technical system using a sensor. In order to permit the use of relatively simple sensors with relatively simple evaluation logics, the method and device perform decision making processes on the basis of hyperordinal signals from imperfect hyperordinal condition sensors.

Maintenance information device, condition sensor for use therein and method which can be carried out therewith for arriving at a decision whether or not to perform servicing or maintenance
