Abstract: A palletizing apparatus and a method for stacking packages on a load carrier. The palletizing apparatus has a stacking location for palletizing the packages and at least two supply stations, which are in conveying connection with the stacking location and each have an intermediate carrier formed for receiving the packages. It is possible for the intermediate carriers to be vertically adjusted by a motor at least to some extent independently of one another between a low-level position and a high-level position. In order to make a rapid palletizing cycle possible, provision is made for the intermediate carriers to be horizontally adjustable by a motor-drive independently of one another between a starting position and an end position. The intermediate carriers are arranged at the supply stations for adjustment in a collision-free manner in opposite adjustment directions between a receiving position and a transfer position.

Abstract: A fixed-wing aircraft includes a load element, which is coupled to a fuselage of the fixed-wing aircraft; and an actuator device, by which a position of the load element can be varied in relation to the fuselage during a flight of the fixed-wing aircraft in order to displace a center of gravity of the fixed-wing aircraft by the load element.

Abstract: A maintenance system for generating maintenance instructions for at least one system, the maintenance system having a plurality of system components set up to receive operating data for a system from a central control unit of the system, to use said data to identify a fault of a system component, to compare the fault with predefined known faults and to retrieve maintenance operations which have already been carried out or are predefined and are correlated with the known faults from a main memory and to select a maintenance operation which correlates with the identified fault in order to rectify the fault and to output the operation as a maintenance instruction. A method for planning maintenance operations has steps of monitoring the systems for faults and generating a maintenance instruction.

Abstract: A method for collecting defect data of parts in a passenger cabin of a vehicle includes, but is not limited to connecting an electronics device allocated to a user to a central communication device, retrieving a user interface provided by the communication device by the electronics device, dialog-based inquiring of defect data of parts by the communication device by way of the user interface on the electronics device, and storing the requested defect data by the communication device in a central data storage unit. The electronics device can be mobile or permanently installed. Mobile electronics devices can be implemented by personal electronics devices of the passengers, which devices were brought into the passenger cabin.
