John,
There is a microswitch on the flap torque shaft that tells the AOA Pro that
you have lowered flaps.  It dutifully tells you that it knows that by
announcing "Flaps!".  It that is happening over and over, you have a loose
connection or short or bad switch.

It is located somewhere under the seats.

Let us know what you find.

Subject: [LML] "FLAPS" Warning Voice

Gents,

I have a IVP with duel Cheltons and an AOA Pro.  Taxiing out, after lowering
my flaps to 10 degrees for takeoff, I get a random "FLAPS" voice warning in
the headset.  

After takeoff and raising the flaps, the voice mercifully goes away.

Back in the pattern, with the flaps down, the voice warning starts up again.
It squawks if I have one, two, or three notches of flaps down.

On roll-out, after the flaps are retracted, the warnings cease.

Question for the group:  How do I make the voice warning go away?

My AOA is calibrated, and I've been all through the Chelton setup screens to
no avail.

Please let me know what I'm missing.

Thanks in advance.
