ISSUE DESCRIPTION
The aircraft loads with the GPWS guard closed and the GPWS switch in the FLAP OVRD (middle position). This shouldn’t even be possible, the only possible position with the guard closed is the NORM position.
When removing the guard, selecting the NORM (up) position, then closing the guard, the switch resets to the FLAP OVRD (middle) position.
The switch is also very finiky to move.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
Always.
REPRODUCTION STEPS
