A warning system for providing an aural warning to the pilot of a rotary wing aircraft monitors the altitude above ground and barometric descent rate of the aircraft and generates the warning if the descent rate of the aircraft is excessive for the altitude at which the aircraft is flying. The system provides two distinct warnings, one being an early warning advising the pilot of a hazardous condition, and the other being a warning alerting the pilot of imminent danger. The system also includes tactical and non-tactical modes of operation, wherein the warning criteria are adjusted to meet tactical and non-tactical flight conditions. |
