Quite often get pop up warning terrain e.g. "Climb above 1500'" but already flying much higher than that. Why is this?
Thanks

When you get this alert I suggest that you look at the virtual radar display.  You may be descending at that instant and SD is warning you of a possible problem if you continue on your current descent trajectory.

Plausible. I'll check. But, if this the case, it seems a bit over sensitive as I'm sure any descent in such cruise would be temp due to turbulence or my clumsy flying.. Perhaps the SD guys will confirm. Thanks
