ABSTRACT:
A windshear warning apparatus which separately compares a plurality of signals derived from horizontal and vertical inertial acceleration and air mass acceleration components to indicate incipient windshear. The compared signals are substantially equal under normal wind conditions but are significantly different under windshear conditions. A signal proportional to the product of the magnitude and rate of change of the total or resultant inertial acceleration of the aircraft is used to provide a warning of a significant windshear condition.
