Mark V-A EGPWS: Proven Legacy, Advanced Capabilities

Mark V-A Upgrade and Transition FAQs
Get clear answers to common questions about upgrading from Mark V to Mark V-A EGPWS. Learn about installation impact, operational changes, upgrade timelines, support options, and how Honeywell Aerospace enables a smooth transition with minimal downtime and a familiar flight deck experience.
The MKV A Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) is Honeywell’s current production replacement for the legacy MK V EGPWS. It retains the same core safety functionality while providing modern hardware, improved reliability, and long term supportability.
The MK V reached end of production in 2014 due to parts obsolescence. Honeywell concluded repair, service, and support on 31 December 2024. As a result, continued long‑term operation of MK V units is no longer supportable.
After April 30, 2026, MK V Terrain Database subscription renewals will be discontinued unless the following applies to you:
- An approved transition plan to MKV‑A exists, or
- There is an agreed plan to sunset or retire the aircraft
- There is not a path to MKV-A for your aircraft via an SB/IPC/STC.
