MK VI & MK VIII EGPWS Pilot Guide
Recommended response to EGPWS alerts are as follows:
1. Stop any descent and climb as necessary to eliminate the
alert. Analyze all available instruments and information to
determine best course of action
2. Advise ATC of situation as necessary.
1. Aggressively position throttles for maximum rated thrust. Ap-
ply maximum available power as determined by emergency
need. The pilot not flying (if applicable) should set power
and ensure that TO/GA power and modes are set.
2. If engaged, disengage the autopilot and smoothly but aggres-
sively increase pitch toward "stick shaker" or Pitch Limit
Indicators (PLI) to obtain maximum climb performance.
3. Continue climbing until the warning is eliminated and safe
flight is assured.
4.
Advise ATC of situation.
NOTE: Climbing is the only recommended response unless
operating in visual conditions and/or pilot determines, based
on all available information, that turning in addition to the
climbing is the safest course of action. Follow established
operating procedures.
NOTE: Navigation must not be based on the use of the Terrain
Awareness Display (TAD).
Below Glideslope alerts consist of "soft" and "hard" alerts based
on the degree of glideslope deviation and altitude. Respond to
these alerts as necessary to correct the aircraft flight path back to
the Glideslope centerline or perform a missed approach.
Advisory callouts being advisory in nature are used to announce
an event or condition (e.g., "Minimums, Minimums"). Response
to these callouts should be in accordance with standard operating
procedures.
