Look at the approach chart for the RNAV 12 at MTV. Bull Mountain is the

3211
ft obstacle very close to the FAF. They'd have to have gone below the 4300
ft
minimum for that segment prior to the FAF.

Sat deal, for sure.


I would have thought that a plane such as the one crashed, would have a GPS
that had a terrain warning feature, no? Also, what kind of electronic aids,
if any, did the destination airport have?

My condolences to all involved.
