Two thousand ft anouncment - CDR - 11-12-2005
I was flying at 7 thousand ft over water and the co pilot kept sayine two thousand ft.
I do know if I were at 7000 ft and was over a mountain that was 2 thousand ft high the co pilot would be correct.
Is this a glich in the program ?

You would need to be above a 5,000ft mountain, not a 2,000ft
I don't have a nagging co-pilot... perhaps you should shut him up!

As Brad was hinting at, callouts are AGL not MSL.

Fortunately... otherwise GPWS would be useless

Luckily, I replaced mine with Airbus callouts (and, no, not that annoying stupid voice from the 320, the voice from the 330).
