A ground proximity warning system (GPWS) is a system designed to alert pilots if their aircraft is in immediate danger of flying into the ground or an obstacle. The actions required from the pilot in the event of a caution or a warning from the GPWS/EGPWS is simple: push the thrust levers to the maximum available thrust and pull back on the controls to gain altitude as quickly as possible. . . . . . . . . . . . #gpws #egpws #aviation #simulator #terrain #emergency #aircrash #investigation #pilot
