low altitude

Is it normal that the on-board computer signals in voice
(low altitude) on landing? on the F15E

With nothing on the keypad, hit the button on the UFC right next to the "LOW ALT" text. This will switch LOW ALT to "OFF".

So, it is correct/realistic that irl in the F-15E, Betty calls out "low altitude" if the pilot fails to disable "LOW ALT"?

Or is this not properly implemented yet, as in EA work in progress? Just double checking, as I'd expect the aircraft to detect the landing configuration and automatically disable the LOW ALT warning.

Its also worth add that currently the warning height is not programmable (EA) and it will be added in the future.

Changing the LOALT warning worked from day one. Never tried to turn it off tho.

I also seem to remember some of the SME´s saying that what we see is what is correct.

Manual, pg. 124 about UFC/PB1:

However I didnt check it after last patches but this sentence is present still.

Just key in a new height and hit the UFC button. It's usually one of the first things I do when flying low level to drop it to 100.

Yes: an SME has confirmed in an earlier thread about this topic that the "low altitude" warning stays on until the condition is no longer true. Aka it will trigger on landing and stay active until you either shut down or take off again and climb above the altitude you have set for the LAW.

btw. I checked and LOW ALT WARNING set up now its working .

As Wizzrd said, it always has worked since public launch. I assume it just didn't when the manual was written.

Thanks gentlemen for the replies.
  good flight to all

It could be, I was reading the manual and never tested this function due this information .

Fair. Conversely, I discovered it without reading the manual and just wondering if trying to punch a number in to change it actually did something!

No, we read it during the flight

On the other hand I did not find (low alt) on UFC
but Law (simply) and when I press
on the button next to (left) ca c is set to off
and when I land (low altitude) and mute.
For me it suits me.
Thank you Mrs david barnette
good flight
