True true true...Gulfstreamaviator, what you said is really good and true, always fly in QFE!! Only one question as the FMS is calibrated for QNH altitudes, we (and the other crew) had a EGPWS warning upon turning base or final. Most probably it depends on the altitude at that time and configuration, but I'd say that the EGPWS doesn't realize that we fly QFE obviously and at a certain point thinks we are hitting the bottom level of low altitude. What do you do in these circumstances? Would be great to have you inputs.

Thank you!

Cheers and good luck for those flying over there!

Happy Lear60 F/O! ;-)
