V1...The TAWS in this accident was ACSS T2CAS, according to their website they have worldwide terrain coverage: TēCASŪ Terrain and Traffic Collision Avoidance System

I believe ACSS buy their terrain source data from someone else, unlike the Honeywell EGPWS that are more common in jet aircraft. Honeywell does it's terrain database in-house.
