<p>Includes means (2) for monitoring the position and behaviour of air traffic in the vicinity of the aircraft and generating a warning or avoidance signal for air traffic predicted to be on a collision course. The apparatus also includes means (5) for monitoring the position and behaviour of the aircraft relative to terrain in the vicinity of the aircraft flight path to generate a warning or avoidance signal for terrain features predicted to provide a collision threat. Means (13, 14, 17) are provided for receiving the traffic warning signals and terrain warning signals comparing the signals and generating a combined warning or advisory signal which indicates an action for the aircraft which avoids both air traffic and terrain collisions.</p> |
