Garmin GPSmap 496 False Terrain Alert
Peter writes:
But this is a recent development; more than 10-20 years ago "GPWS" was basically just a radar altimeter. I've read a fair few crash reports; the one on Mt Erebus comes to mind in this context, c. 1985. GPWS was not at fault in that crash, as I recall.
