Missed Approach

NOTICE

When changing the destination while navigating on a missed approach, delete the arrival (if loaded) or the approach before changing the destination in order to preserve the missed approach guidance.

The system is capable of providing guidance for the approach as well as the missed approach. Once the missed approach is activated, RNP 0.3 will be displayed on the HSI next to the CDI. If the missed approach is activated before the Missed Approach Point (MAP), waypoint sequencing will continue along the approach to the missed approach. If the missed approach is not activated before the MAP, the system will enter SUSP Mode once the aircraft crosses the MAP until the missed approach is activated or SUSP Mode is disabled. See the Flight Instruments Section for more information on SUSP Mode.

See the Missed Approach Preview for information on displaying the missed approach preview on map displays.

218: Activating the Missed Approach


In the missed approach procedure shown in the following figure, the altitude immediately following the MAP may or may not be part of the published procedure. Regardless, it represents a Course to Altitude (CA) leg along the runway centerline. The altitude shown must be achieved before turning safely toward the Missed Approach Holding Point (MAHP). If the aircraft altitude is below the specified altitude after crossing the MAP, a direct-to is established to provide a course on runway heading until the altitude is reached. After reaching the altitude, a direct-to is established to the next published waypoint. If the aircraft altitude is above the specified altitude after crossing the MAP, a direct-to is established to the published fix to begin the missed approach procedure.
