The auto pilot is now disconected and the thrust levers fire walled. The ground is rushing up and the GPWS alerts have started to come thick and fast. They start to pull up to reduce the decent rate.
the only GPWS alerts that would have been heard are "SINK RATE... SINK RATE....SINK RATE"

the rest would be inhibited due to the aircraft in the landing configuration already.
