MD-11 reactive windshear

The MD-11 reactive windshear guidance and warning generation are both performed in the FCC. To be specific the warnings are generated in both FCC-1 and in FCC-2 and the data is sent to CAWS for annunciation.

MD-11 had reactive windshear warning and guidance long before EGPWS was invented.
