Geartalk

I think the sound file Geartalk is the one that keeps telling me that I'm too low, pull up ect. I know I'm low and I dont want to pull up because I'm trying to land! Is there a way to edit these sounds?  Thanks again...

If I am not mistaken I think that sound comes from the callout gauge to remove them you have to look through the panel cfg file for the gauge callout line and remove it then renumber the remaining lines so they stay in sequence. If you remove the sound without removeing the gauge you could get an error every time you load a plane that uses it. If you notice the default planes do not do this because they do not have the callout gauge they usually come from a download. But in the real world the pilots get the same message it will tell them to pull up when they are trying to land.

But real world pilots can inihibit them, if they are intentionally flying low :)
I imagine it must be a pain the a$$ to hear the GWPS warnings over and over?

This is true they can turn them off but some airlines say they have to at least hear it once as a way to make sure the system is working. And the maintance staff check the system on every RON air craft.
RON= remain over night.
I rember while cleaning a delta plane the mechs would be in the cockpit and you would hear that dumb voice telling you to pull up pull up. I did not have the heart to tell it that it was a little late being that the plane is on the ground and at the gate ;D
