"AnthonyQ" wrote in message It does not give any terrain warning.
In the US, starting this quarter, all turbine powered equipment with six passenger seats or more will be required to have Terrain Awareness Warning Systems (TAWS) installed. This equipment is required on private as well as commercial equipment, freight or passenger, jet or turboprop. TAWS uses GPS positioning compared against topographic mapping to determine if a threat exists. A screen shows the mountains near you. Red is bad. Green is okay. This equipment would have been helpful in the incident Ram is asking about. D.
