Latkowski's claim that Protasiuk declined to fly to Severny because of the weather and had to be ordered to do so does not correspond with the MAK report.

BOAC (#1307), I would guess the 60m is essentially a " parking position" for the DH bug, not an indication of intent to use that setting for a non-precision approach !.

It is not surprising that FMS/GPS minima are not not listed in the Tu154 FM. In its basic form FMS/GPS is not intended to be an IFR approach procedure. According to the equipment...

Sadpole (#570) I will try to answer the questions you raised about the use of radio altitude. The usual caveat applies about my lack of Tu154 specific knowledge, but in this case these comments...

BOAC, that would be my understanding too, though I have to say I am not fully familiar with current systems. "Terrain Ahead" is predictive and therefore may be database dependent though not...

Following on my post # 544 (yesterday) one issue that is not being addressed on this forum is the response, or lack of response, to the first TAWS “Pull Up” warning.

The essential piece of information that we lack is any clear idea of the crew’s plan for the approach, in particular how they expected to control their vertical profile. We don’t know what they...
