NEGATIVE CLIMB RATE AFTER TAKEOFF ALERT (NCR)
The Negative Climb Rate (NCR) After Takeoff alert (also referred to as “Altitude Loss After Takeoff”) provides
alerts when the system determines the aircraft is losing altitude (closing upon terrain) after takeoff. The aural
message “Don’t Sink” is given for NCR alerts, accompanied by an annunciation and a pop-up terrain alert on
the display. NCR alerting is only active when departing from an airport and when the following conditions
are met:
• Height above the terrain is less than 700 feet
• Distance from the departure airport is 2 nm or less
• Heading change from the departure heading is less than 110 degrees
The figure below shows the NCR alerting parameters as defined by TSO-C151b.
