The warning system doesn't give up - even on the runway and mostly slowed down she's still trying to save you. I guess I'm odd in that I find her warnings comforting, if a little stressful - but at night or without visual reference though, no, no I would be a nervous wreck after such a landing. I'm confident your solution to avoid this problem is very carefully considered. Thank you for posting this, happy landings.
Thank you! At the time the video was taken I did not know how to inhibit the terrain warning. This airport is not in the EGPWS database. The computer would filter otherwise the warning out which was triggered by low altitude in reference to terrain. If you land at an airport, being low is a "normal" situation, but the computer still thought we were in cruise flight with no intention to land. Hence the warning. Happy Landings, Guido PS: although I understand and respect the anonymity of the web, I would appreciate if you could write your comment with your clear name - it's just more personal. Thank you!

About a month ago I flew on a King Air for research purposes. The particular flight I was on was flight maneuvers for calibration of the static pressure system and trying to create an error in static pressure. We varied the pitch, roll, yaw and air speed of the aircraft. We were flying over a fairly hilly area at different altitudes. We triggered the GPWS very often while flying. We got the "Don't sink!" warning, "Terrain - Pull up!" and a couple of other warnings as well. Had a ton of fun on that flight and its made me consider getting a pilots license as well as rethink what I might like to study in grad school. As usual, great and informative video! -Shelby
Great job and very professional! Regarding EGPWS: These are great. However with situations like this and other types of malfunctions, we get to hear that voice. We train ourselfs to not react to it until we verify if it is a malfunction or like in this case the airport is not in the database. Sadly this can possibly lead to flight crews not responding as quickly as they should to such commands. That in turn could lead to the exact thing the EGPWS is trying to help us avoid (CFIT). Again, great job!
Thank you Wujek - the typo error is corrected! If weather conditions are low - you follow these commands of the EGPWS and no questions asked. It can and it has saved many lives. We train in the simulator the "pull up" evasive action which is: full power, up to the stick shaker...and hope for the best. Thanks again & happy landings, Guido
I love the statement..."Airplane has to be close to the ground to land." You can tell an experienced pilot by the way he talks. Wink, wink. Another good one, Mr. G.
Thank you Mike! It is around 7,500 hours total. I fly jets and turboprop aircraft, Cessna Citation and King Air but also larger aircraft like Gulfstream I and II. Happy Landings, Guido
Thank you Andre. Good point with the "after landing clean up" procedure. These King Airs are originally designed for single pilot operation. Many switches are located at the left and accessible for the pilot in the right seat. When I am the pilot monitoring PM in the left seat, I do it exactly as you said. Happy Landings, Guido

Mr. Guido Warnecke, I love watching your videos...you are a very experienced pilot. I do know that due to camera angle we cannot see exactly what you are seeing, but, this type of thing must add considerable stress during the extreme busy cockpit environment that is present during the last few minutes of the final approach to landing, even if you know those are false warnings.
Glen England Thank you, Glen! The first thing that you do after an alarm or a warning is to acknowledge it (by both pilots) and the silence / cancel the alarm. Yes, it can be very distracting. Happy Landings, Guido

Hi Vladimir, these Garrett turbine engines have only one shaft, in contrary to the "normal" PT6 turbines which have the Propellers mounted on a separate, independent shaft. During engine start, also the Propellers have to be turned and it is obvious, that in this case, the propellers must be in a flat position. Otherwise they would create too much drag. During shut down, the propellers are mechanically locked in a flat position. After start of the engines, you release...>

Was this an uncontrolled field? Is this why it wasn't in the database? Good call recognizing the situation and warning. Nothing worse than having equipment yelling at you on final. It totally detracts focus from the actual landing. Good job sir, perfecto!
That's the way I was taught too, James, but it seems to be going out of favor. I notice that the trend at uncontrolled fields seems to be towards announcing things that will make it easier for other pilots to identify the aircraft. So, for example, "red & white Cirrus turning final for landing, full stop, Truckee".
There is a mistake in the explanation : mode 2 is "TERRAIN TERRAIN PULL UP", instead of "DON'T SINK" witch is the mode 3 (descent after take-off). For information, predictive alerts was also triggered during this nice video : "CAUTION TERRAIN" and "TERRAIN AHEAD PULL UP".
Thank you Maxime. That was a typo from my side. In general it makes no difference which mode this is defined as - as long as the pilot understands the meaning. These are normally the annoying questions asked in written exams "what is the mode 3". I appreciate that you watch my videos in such detail. Happy landings, Capt. Guido
Edward Rudisill Hi Edward, if a system triggers obviously a false alarm, these need to be switched off after the false alarm is identified and acknowledged. What happened here was that the airport we flew to (a small one in Maine) t was not in the terrain warning 3D database. If an airport is in the database, filters are applied that inhibit certain warnings when you are in the vicinity of an airport for landing. This for obvious reasons, otherwise the system would yell at you all the times because when you land you fly lower than you would fly en route. Another example for filters is the "SINK RATE" warning. At high attitude a descent rate of 3,000 feet per minute is acceptable, while at lower altitudes a much lower descent rate already triggers an alarm. I hope this explains the concept. If I am a pilot? I hold valid Airline Transport Pilot licenses from the FAA and from SACAA South Africa with more than 8,000 hours, so I would say: yes.... Thanks for watching my videos and Happy Landings, Guido
+Guido Warnecke you deal with it, turning off safety systems can cause crashes as they have in the past. good pilots learn form past mistakes that resulted in deaths, bad ones repeat them.
Yeah, "bitchy Betty" can drive you crazy... Happy landings, Guido PS: although I understand and respect the anonymity of the web, I would appreciate if you could write your comment with your clear name - it's just more personal. Thank you!
I happened to see another video on UA-cam of a landing on an island airstrip. The TAWS complained all the way down to the ground, through the roll-out, and during taxi! Hopefully you were able to figure out a mechanism to inhibit. Best regards.
Nice video. I just realized the captain was wearing a pair correction glasses. I remember when I was in high school and some guys from the China Southern Airline came to my school to recruit some pilots. They turned me down because I was wearing glasses :( I guess the standards in China is quite different than the US.
Hi Linus I do not know the standards of other states. Typically, your corrected vision is checked. Airlines may have stronger standards. Happy Landings, Guido
Just did a quick google and this came up; "When TAWS is inhibited on the GPS 500W TAWS, GNS 530W TAWS or GNS 530AW TAWS Unit, the GPWS visual alerts (Excessive Descent Rate and Negative Climb Rate) are inhibited on the external annunciator. Visual alerts and aural alerts are NOT inhibited on the GNS Unit." It probably doesn't help, but oh well. Nice landing :)
Tom, may be it is not easy to see in the video. There is a double-switch (clutch and motor) for the pitch trim on the left side of the captain's yoke. I operate this with the thumb. No mechanical trim wheel. Looks weird at the beginning but you get used to it. Happy Landings, Guido
Yes, Mike, it looks like these databases are different. May be the airport is not "officially" surveyed. If you look it up in AIRNAV ist shows an "estimated" position (co-ordinates) of the airport. Happy Landings, Guido
Hi Liam, there is a "synthetic vision" incorporated in the system, hat builds a 3-D model out of a GPS database. It is for better situational awareness only and not to be used to steer the airplane. Happy Landings, Guido
Captain Warneke & First Ofc. Pasrkes, As usual gentlemen, great video - Always professional and very informative. Please excuse me for a second while I ask a really stupid question... The GPWS has a database correct? How difficult would it have been or would it be to pre-program the database either pre-flight &/or pre-trip, (if time constraints permit such a task.) - Again, Thank you for your amazing videos sir. Clear Skies & Safe Landings, Michael
I'm surprised they don't have a manual override button for the false terrain alarms as this cant be an isolated incident! Thank you for another great video. Safe flying
Hi John, quite a lot of differences: the start process is completely different as is the shout down. n general, these engines require more attention by the pilot with regard to the temperatures. Fuel consumption is about 5% less per horse power compared to PT6. Pilot need to be trained thorough. But they are food engines. Happy Landings, Guido
The small airport is not in the EGPWS database, that mixed up everything. I have to look up if the GPWS also triggers with gear down in certain conditions. Happy Landings, Guido
Uncontrolled refers to if there is a control tower or not. Many airports in the USA are uncontrolled. Thanks for watching my videos & happy landings, Guido
The approach is quite non-standard due to the terrain at the airport. A PUL UP GWPS warning in bad weather conditions calls for an IMMEDIATE go around. I apologize for the late reply, see your comment only now. To you and your family I wish a Merry Christmas and all the best in 2024. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
Here normally what we do after landing is that the copilot 'cleans' the airplane (because was in the landing configuration) and the captain calls for the After Landing Checklist. I think that is good because the captain can concentrade only on the taxi, what do you say Guido? Congrats for the video by the way.
Moose river! Man, one of the few Maine airports I've not been to. I forget it even existed. Nice approach, shame the EGPWS kept going off good job ignoring that as I would have been driven nuts.
Ian, like so often the problem was "pilot induced"... I did not know how to inhibit the terrain warning. Normally there is an external switch to do so, not in this aircraft. You had to switch terrain warning off in the Garmin 750, well hidden in some sub-menus. The airport is nice, but no instrument procedure. And I am not very familiar with the terrain there. Happy Landing, Guido
The airport is not in the EGPWS database. So the system assumes you fly dangerously low. The warning would be filtered out if the system would know the aircraft is on/near an airport. Happy Landings, Guido

if a system triggers obviously a false alarm, these need to be switched off after the false alarm is identified and acknowledged.
What happened here was that the airport we flew to (a small one in Maine) t was not in the terrain warning 3D database.
If an airport is in the database, filters are applied that inhibit certain warnings when you are in the vicinity of an airport for landing.
This for obvious reasons, otherwise the system would yell at you all the times because when you land you fly lower than you would fly en route.
Another example for filters is the "SINK RATE" warning. At high attitude a descent rate of 3,000 feet per minute is acceptable, while at lower altitudes a much lower descent rate already triggers an alarm.
I hope this explains the concept.

there is a "synthetic vision" incorporated in the system, hat builds a 3-D model out of a GPS database. It is for better situational awareness only and not to be used to steer the airplane.
Happy Landings,

Thank you very much Akeem. It was not really short...

Captain Warneke & First Ofc. Pasrkes, As usual gentlemen, great video - Always professional and very informative. Please excuse me for a second while I ask a really stupid question... The GPWS has a database correct? How difficult would it have been or would it be to pre-program the database either pre-flight &/or pre-trip, (if time constraints permit such a task.) - Again, Thank you for your amazing videos sir.
Clear Skies & Safe Landings,
Michael
It DOES help, Ben - thank you!
We still have not figured out correctly how to inhibit this on the Garmin 600/750.
Happy Landings,
Guido
I'm surprised they don't have a manual override button for the false terrain alarms as this cant be an isolated incident! Thank you for another great video.
Safe flying
Na, it probably be an AKC key
Only my pleasure. More videos to come.
Please go on with your commercial! Best of luck.

Hi John,
quite a lot of differences: the start process is completely different as is the shout down. n general, these engines require more attention by the pilot with regard to the temperatures. Fuel consumption is about 5% less per horse power compared to PT6. Pilot need to be trained thorough. But they are food engines.

but isn't this "pull up" command activated only when the landing gear is not lowered?
The small airport is not in the EGPWS database, that mixed up everything.
I have to look up if the GPWS also triggers with gear down in certain conditions.
Happy Landings,
Guido
@@GuidoWarnecke tks by the answer
Uncontrolled refers to if there is a control tower or not.
Many airports in the USA are uncontrolled.
Thanks for watching my videos & happy landings,
Guido
A nice video. PULL UP - PULL UP!!! any deviation of Glide Path..
The approach is quite non-standard due to the terrain at the airport.
A PUL UP GWPS warning in bad weather conditions calls for an IMMEDIATE go around.
I apologize for the late reply, see your comment only now.
To you and your family I wish a Merry Christmas and all the best in 2024.
Happy Landings,
Capt. Guido
Excellent! As always Guido!
Here normally what we do after landing is that the copilot 'cleans' the airplane (because was in the landing configuration) and the captain calls for the After Landing Checklist. I think that is good because the captain can concentrade only on the taxi, what do you say Guido? Congrats for the video by the way.
Hi Alexandre,
it is allowed to inhibit the EGPWS when you are in visual conditions.
Happy Landings,
Guido
Ese sonido debe ser aterrador donde no hay visibilidad.
You are correct! In IMC you immediately pull up and climb with maximum performance.

Moose river! Man, one of the few Maine airports I've not been to. I forget it even existed. Nice approach, shame the EGPWS kept going off good job ignoring that as I would have been driven nuts.
Ian, like so often the problem was "pilot induced"... I did not know how to inhibit the terrain warning. Normally there is an external switch to do so, not in this aircraft. You had to switch terrain warning off in the Garmin 750, well hidden in some sub-menus. The airport is nice, but no instrument procedure. And I am not very familiar with the terrain there.
Happy Landing,
Guido
Why does the terrain warning still sound after the aircraft has safely touched down unobstructed?
The airport is not in the EGPWS database. So the system assumes you fly dangerously low. The warning would be filtered out if the system would know the aircraft is on/near an airport.
Happy Landings,

This was a Jackman ME (K59B).

Another great video! I'm surprised that the airport isn't in the EGPWS database, yet appears on the synthetic vision on the PDF. Why is that?
We have not found out yet. The avionics in this aircraft have been installed only recently.
Happy Landings,
Guido
