Week 2 Update (Week of 2/13)

(Unfortunately, due to personal and internship restrictions, there have been a delay in posts to Blogger.)

The boredom continues. Since my internship has still not started, my days drag on. I am still attempting to learn about topics pertaining to TAWS but I doubt the work I do at home is as useful as the work I will be able to do once my internship starts. This week I studied the NTSB report for the CFIT incident of UPS Airlines Flight 1354. This report is significant because it is recent (the incident occurred in 2013) and is a perfect example of pilots ignoring TAWS warnings which results in the destruction of their aircraft.
