1. An apparatus for providing an aircraft flight status signal, comprising: a device configured to calculate the flight status signal, the device comprising: a signal input section configured to receive a number of differently provided flight speed signals, a number of differently provided engine status signals, a number of differently provided evacuation signals, a number of differently provided front undercarriage status signals and a number of differently provided main undercarriage status signals;at least one signal evaluation device configured to generate the flight status signal as a function of the received flight speed signals, engine status signals, evacuation signals, front undercarriage status signals and main undercarriage status signals; anda signal output section configured to output the flight status signal;wherein the flight status signal indicates whether the aircraft is in the air or on the ground. 2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein: the device is capable of receiving the flight speed signals, the engine status signals, the evacuation signals, the front undercarriage status signals and the main undercarriage status signals by means of a bus. 3. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein: the signal evaluation device comprises a number of threshold value units, the respective n1th threshold value unit, n1 ε [1, . . . , N1], being configured to set an n1th flight speed status at a positive logical level on an output side of the n1th threshold value unit if the flight speed signal received in each case on an input side of the n1th threshold value unit is greater than a predeterminable threshold value, andthe signal evaluation device generates the flight status signal based on the flight speed statuses. 4. The apparatus according to claim 3, wherein: the signal evaluation device comprises a first logic operation unit configured to set, on an output side of the first logic operation unit, a global flight speed status at a positive logical level if at least one predeterminable number N1′, N1′
