Flight Warning Computer (Fwc)

The Flight Warning Computer, or FWC, plays a crucial role in aviation safety. It displays failure and status information on the ECAM display units. Its main purposes are to guide pilots on what actions to take during specific failures. Additionally, it presents the relevant system pages linked to those failures. The FWC also triggers visual alerts, like the Master Warning and Master Caution lights, as well as aural alerts, which include alarm sounds and synthetic voice callouts. This system is essential for ensuring that pilots can respond effectively to technical issues and maintain control of the aircraft.
