I never said EGPWS was a panacea or their primary means of navigation, quite the opposite in fact.
There is a way to answer questions, which the vast majority of people have done in a civil way. There is just one senior member that seems to have a chip on his shoulder, as also evidenced in some of his replies on other threads too.
Yes is the answer, the radar would see it. Based upon standard set up etc etc etc doesn't matter if you are in wx mode or gmap, the tilt would have to have been extreme not to pick it up. Which I can think of no reason for it to be anything other than within a normal range.
