A method of operating a monitoring system to provide pressure warnings associated with a tyre of an aircraft. The monitoring system comprises a flight deck display (15) on a flight deck (16) of the aircraft and a processor (12). When the aircraft is stationary, the processor (12) operates in a maintenance mode (24) in which the processor (12) receives a first pressure measurement indicating a pressure of the tyre; compares the first pressure measurement with a maintenance mode low pressure threshold, and causes the flight deck display to display a low pressure warning associated with the tyre if the first pressure measurement is below the maintenance mode low pressure threshold. When the aircraft is in motion, the processor (12) operates in a flight mode (26) in which the processor (12) receives a second pressure measurement indicating a pressure of the tyre, compares the second pressure measurement with an abnormal pressure threshold which is lower than the maintenance mode low pressure threshold, and causes the flight deck display (15) to display an abnormal pressure warning associated with the tyre if the second pressure measurement is below the abnormal pressure threshold. When the processor (12) is in the flight mode (26), if the second pressure measurement is between the maintenance mode low pressure threshold and the abnormal pressure threshold, then the processor (12) does not cause the flight deck display (15) to display a low pressure warning associated with the tyre, so the flight crew is not distracted.
