Introduction

Installation of a Honeywell Mark V EGPWS (enhanced ground proximity warning system). This system exceeds the Class A terrain awareness and warning system (TAWS) requirements and provides protection against controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) and windshear. The Mark V accepts a variety of aircraft parameters as inputs, applying proprietary alerting algorithms to provide the flight crew with aural alert messages, visual annunciations and terrain display of terrain or obstacles in the flight path.

 


Your needs

·         Honeywell's reactive wind shear alerting provides visual and aural warnings of impending wind shear

·         The geometric altitude algorithm overcomes barometric altimetry limitations, like cold weather operations

·         The runway field clearance floor (RFCF) feature provides protection against inadvertent landings below airport runway thresholds at airports that are much higher than surrounding terrain.

·         The vertical situation display (VSD) provides altitude awareness in relation to the terrain, as well as an aircraft trend vector.


Your benefits

 

-       The Mark V features altitude callouts of height above terrain or field elevation during final approach.

-       The Mark V has auto pop-up to change from radar to terrain display in the event of a terrain alert, reducing pilot workload during this critical time.

-       Our radar autotilt feature allows the EGPWS to provide terrain elevation data to compatible radars for controlling the tilt of the radar antenna during its scan.
