I can't figure which thread to put this suggestion into, so here's a new
one.

Filling a cockpit with raucous warning noises is very likely to be confusing
in a stressful situation - fortunately, there is another way. Instead of an
electronic noisemaker, use small .wav files burned into EPROM's of soft
human voices stating the problem in plain words. I've always liked the
military idea of a soft female voice saying "Bingo fuel" as a low fuel
warning.

It should be possible for one of our resident gadgeteers to build a small
box with a speaker, memory and an array of connections for hooking up the
various warning system switches. A USB port allowing the device to be
connected to a computer running the appropriate software would allow the
user to upload any warning audio files desired.

Of course, I expect the r.a.s comedians to have a field day with this, so go
ahead, it's entertaining.
