EGPWS Flight History Data

EGPWS Flight History Data was designed to:

-Provide detailed data on EGPWS alerts

to improve terrain database

to evaluate the performance of EGPWS algorithms in real-world operation

maximize CFIT protection

minimize nuisance alarms

EGPWS Flight History Data can:

-Help provide data to investigate Incidents / Accidents

Where FDRs do not exist on the aircraft or fail to function

EGPWS does not add much beyond what FDR provides

But, it wasn’t designed for accident investigation purposes
