The EGPWS system will adjust colours on the terrain display automatically as the aircraft altitude changes. The terrain display transitions between the lower altitude relative display and the higher altitude peaks display automatically. No pilot action is required. The most important function of the EGPWS is to give the pilot easy interpreted information about terrain/obstacles relative to the aircraft, and increase the situational awareness for the pilot. In general, the normal presentation of green, yellow and red colours. #egpws #avionics #helicopters Aircrafts & Helicopters #aircraftmaintenancetechnician

Leading helicopter service provider Falcon Aviation Services announced today a further reinforcement of its long-term partnership with #Leonardo through the introduction of the #AW139 intermediate twin engine helicopter into its fleet supporting the Energy industry. #FalconAviation has signed a contract during an official ceremony at the Farnborough International Airshow for one aircraft plus one option.    This latest move will expand the fleet of Leonardo helicopters operated by Falcon Aviation which already includes the #AW109SP, #AW169 and #AW189 types. In particular, five AW169s and four AW189s are used for offshore transport missions in the #UAE and #Kuwait. The introduction of the AW139 will make Falcon Aviation another prime user of the entire AW Family of latest generation helicopters of Leonardo, a unique concept design based on commonalities across the three models in terms of certification and safety standards, components, cockpit layout and appearance, training and technical support approach. The Family concept has now been delivering for years unequalled benefits to major global operators in terms of training, fleet management, versatility, efficiency and #sustainability.     Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dkXKUbAG   #LDOFIA2024 #FIA2024
