NOTE
Terrain Alert Caution Maneuver
When a terrain alert caution occurs, verify the aircraft
flight path and correct it, if required. If in doubt, perform
a climb until the caution alert ceases.
NOTE
Terrain Alert Warning Maneuver
When a terrain alert warning occurs, immediately initiate
and continue a climb that will provide maximum terrain
clearance, or any similar approved vertical terrain
escape maneuver, until all alerts cease. Only vertical
maneuvers are recommended, unless operating in
visual meteorological conditions (VMC) and/or the pilot
determines, based on all available information, that
turning in addition to the vertical escape maneuver is
the safest course of action.
NOTE
Do Not Use TAWS For Navigation
The TAWS terrain display is intended to serve as a
situational awareness tool only. It may not provide the
accuracy and/or fidelity on which to solely base
decisions and plan maneuvers to avoid terrain or
obstacles.
