Unsafe Condition

The SWPS or ESP systems may engage even when sufficient airspeed and proper angle of AOA exists for normal flight. The SWPS includes the stall warning alarm, stick shaker, and stick pusher. The ESP includes under speed protection (USP). The SWPS or the ESP systems engaging inappropriately could potentially result in a stall warning crew alert (CAS) message activation, accompanied by an audio alarm and stick shaker activation, followed possibly by either low speed ESP/USP engaging, and the stick pusher engaging.
