its really scary to hear that GPWS callout.. "Sinkrate".. "Sinkrate".. hehe

[xfernydrummerX]

so...what that means? just asking he he....i am just trying to learn bro

[kimosab3]

sinkrate means the airplane goes to fast descending..

[cedarjet707]

'Sink rate' is just a caution, it's not 'Pull up' or 'don't sink' or any of those. 'Too low terrain.' You hear 'sink rate' a few times on a normal approach. Well I do anyway!

(On the other hand, these guys were very low the whole way! Good fun!)
