I am not thrilled with the low altitude alert system. The way it is now, there does not seem to be adequate means to decide if it is a bonafide warning and you are truly too low, or it is just a spurious alert.
I had one on the approach going into Brown field years ago, and heard another pilot get it there too. I was level, having already made the minimum for the segment approaching the VOR so I don't think it was the system was predicting a ground collision with a VSI of 0. (it was imc so I had no visual cues)
I reported the Kohlsman setting and altitude, tower had no objection so I continued. Beyond that what else can be done? The radar altimeter does not work that high.
I always wondered what if the system was right and I was about to take out a tower or hill because my air data was off.
Should we go missed on these and somehow verify our position and altitude beyond what is already available to us? Or does the LAE system need tweaking?
It's pretty unnerving to get this while in the soup.
