Nick,
Your very good friend Alan Bristow may be calling you shortly, and not from beyond the grave! Not only is he alive and well but he's still flying. I am sure that he is proud that professional pilots like HC work for the company he founded.
Rather than just personal abuse of HC, why not a technical explanation of why you think he not correct. He seems to have done his homework, so please tell us uneducated plebs what is incorrect in what he has said so we may be better educated.
I know that AVAD has drawn my attention to something not being quite right in the past and I wonder if EGPWS would have done the same in that situation.
AVAD may be a relatively cheap and cheerful solution but I am astonished that it has not been made compulsory in the GOM after having proved itself so many times on the North Sea over the years. Is it available as an option on the S92?
