"LOOK-AHEAD" ALERTING AND WARNING

Using aircraft position, altitude and flight path information, the system
provides an envelope of protection for the aircraft that is independent
from the Terrain Awareness Display. This "Look-Ahead" function com-
pares the aircraft flight path to terrain and obstacle database information,
and distance to known runways.
