Zusammenfassung: | During a take-off or missed approach phase of operation the aircraft's maximum barometric altitude is retained in a memory element and compared to the aircraft's current altitude, and if the aircraft's current barometric altitude should be below the maximum altitude by a predetermined amount based on the aircraft's radio altitude, a voice warning is generated indicating that the aircraft is descending. Landing gear and flaps are monitored by the system and if the gear or flaps are down, an additional voice warning is generated indicating that the gear or flaps are down. |
