BA Boeing GPWS - History?
 
Hello all, I'm on my search for more interesting, but useless trivia once again. Would anybody at, or previously at BA be able to shed some light on exactly why they have a rather strange custom GPWS set. Standard Boeing except for a female "radio altimeter, fifty above, decide". From what I can see/hear it's on all Boeing, including the 777s.


What's wrong with the standard male voices? Perhaps they had Q from Tomorrow Never Dies working for BA at the time :D
