Reduced Required Terrain Clearance (RTC), Reduced Required Line
Clearance (RLC),
and
Reduced Required Obstacle Clearance (ROC)
alerts
are issued when the aircraft flight path is above terrain, yet is projected to come
within the minimum clearance values in the FLTA Alert Minimum Terrain and
Obstacle Clearance Values table. When an RTC, RLC, and/or a ROC alert is
issued, a threat location indicator is displayed on the Terrain page.
Imminent Terrain Impact (ITI), Imminent Line Impact (ILI),
Imminent Obstacle Impact (IOI)
alerts are issued when the aircraft is below
the elevation of a terrain or obstacle cell in the aircraft’s projected path. ITI, ILI,
and IOI alerts are accompanied by a threat location indicator displayed on the
Terrain page. The alert is annunciated when the projected vertical flight path is
calculated to come within minimum clearance altitudes in the following table.
