Anybody familiar with this system. I am reading about a BMed flight that almost crashed due to faulty VOR signals in Ethiopia and at the end the article talks about this AMSADD system that is supposedly better than EGPWS but few details are given. Do any airlines have this system? Thanks.

AMSADD is here (http://www.amsadd.com/home.htm) - looks like it hasn't been installed anywhere yet.

The 'Daily PPrune' (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=90231&highlight=addis) covers this (as you would expect:ok: ) and the link is in the first post.
