Alert Height is when

  • a decision of whether to land is made
  • an alert of the altitude of the aircraft is made
  • an alert of the ground proximity is made

Explanation from PART66Online

Alert height is a radio-altitude point in a fail-operational autoland above which a single failure causes a go-around and below which the landing is continued; it is therefore the height at which the continue-or-abandon decision is governed. It is not a simple altitude callout or a ground-proximity alert.

There are two same questions and two different answers. In this case the correct answer is an alert of the altitude of the aircraft is made. Other case correct answer is a decision of whether to land is made.
So what is the right answer then?

I believe that a decision whether to land is made is correct.
