Hazard Awareness
190-02327-03 Rev. C Pilot’s Guide 5-113
OVERRIDING FLAPS-BASED FIT ALERTING
To reduce nuisance FIT alerts on approaches where flap extension is not desired (or is
intentionally delayed), the pilot may override FIT alerting based on the flap position,
while all other FIT alerting remains in effect.
FIT alerts also occur during takeoff or go-around if the aircraft’s height above ground
level (as determined by the radar altimeter) is too close to rising terrain. TAWS-A will
issue the aural message “Too Low - Terrain” and visual annunciations when
conditions enter the caution alert area.
Radio Altitude Loss (ft)
The FLAP O/R (Flap Override) should be activated when an approach without
flaps is going to be performed.
