The paper outlines the requirements for the Master Warning System aboard Concorde. It is shown that the system must be a high integrity one, and must have no single point failure which would constrain the operation of the remainder. The effects of electrical noise and the new aspects of the Concorde MWS circuitry are discussed, in particular, the digital filtering system. The operational experience obtained with the device is mentioned, and so far no spurious signals have been recorded, no occasional electrical noise surges have triggered the MWS and all displays on the Display Panel have reflected the true state of the aircraft.
