When should you execute the published missed approach?
Executes a missed approach when one of the following conditions exist: Arrival at the Missed Approach Point (MAP) or the Decision Height (DH) and visual reference to the runway environment is insufficient to complete the landing. Determines that a safe approach or landing is not possible (see subparagraph 5-4-21h)
What is a missed approach procedure?
A missed approach procedure is specified for all airfield and runway Precision Approach and Non-Precision Approach procedures. The missed approach procedure takes into account de-confliction from ground obstacles and from other air traffic flying instrument procedures in the airfield vicinity.
How do you identify a missed approach on a LOC?
On the example LOC, the missed approach point can be identified only by flying a timed leg using a clock. The missed approach point is the same -in for straight and circling approaches, but is different from the ILS.The missed approach course for straight-in LOC or circling is not depicted in profile view.
How does a LOC approach differ from a VOR approach?
The missed approach point is the same for straight-in and circling approaches. In case of an early missed approach, the pilot would maintain the approach speed and cross the missed approach point before making the right turn. The profile for a LOC approach is essentially identical to VOR and NDB approaches.
Is it possible to land from a missed approach point?
The climb to 3,000 ft is initiated when the final approach time expires. In general, it is “inadvisable or impossible” to execute a normal landing from the missed approach point of a nonprecision approach – procedure. The missed approach point is the same for straight-in and circling approaches.
How to identify the missed approach point on an ILS?
It is therefore incorrect, when briefing any procedure, to use the arrow in the airport sketch to identify the missed approach point. On an ILS, the missed approach point is that point at which the glide slope intersects the Decision Altitude (DA). This is depicted by “the beginning of the dotted missed approach course line” in profile view.
