Abstract
A ground proximity warning system for aircraft having flight path angle based warning criteria generates a warning in the event of an excessively steep flight path angle during an approach to a landing. The warning criteria are altered to provide an earlier warning upon the occurrence of a low intensity wind shear or a below glideslope condition. A below glideslope warning system that is biased as a function of decreasing performance shear is also provided. A descent rate based warning system usable above a predetermined altitude may also be provided to supplement the flight path angle warning system.
