Sandel Avionics will begin flight testing its Helicopter Terrain Awareness and Warning System (HTWAS) Oct. 20 at Corporate Helicopters of San Diego.
Designed to enhance rotorcraft safety by complying with the recently issued FAA Technical Standard Order (TSO) C194 governing HTAWS, the Sandel HTAWS is a self-contained system developed specifically for helicopter use. Derived from Sandel’s ST3400 TAWS for fixed-wing aircraft, the new system incorporates an HTAWS computer, terrain and obstacle databases, nuisance-alert suppression and a high-resolution display in a single unit.
