MISSED APPROACH
Activating a missed approach in the active flight plan:
1)
Press the
PROC
Key.
2)
Turn the
FMS
Knob to highlight ‘ACTIVATE MISSED APPROACH’.
3)
Press the
ENT
Key. The aircraft automatically sequences to the MAHP.
Or
:
Press the Go-Around Button.
In this missed approach procedure, the altitude immediately following the MAP (in this case ‘
6368
ft
’) is
not part of the published procedure. It is simply a Course to Altitude (CA) leg which guides the aircraft along
the runway centerline until the altitude required to safely make the first turn toward the MAHP is exceeded.
This altitude is provided by the navigation database, and may be below, equal to, or above the published
minimums for this approach. In this case, if the aircraft altitude is below the specified altitude (6,368 feet)
after crossing the MAP, a direct-to is established to provide a course on runway heading until an altitude of
6,368 feet is reached. After reaching 6,368 feet, a direct-to is established to the published MAHP (in this case
MOGAL). If the aircraft altitude is above the specified altitude after crossing the MAP, a direct-to is established
to the published fix (MOGAL) to begin the missed approach procedure.
Figure 5-105 Course to Altitude
Course to Altitude Leg
In some missed approach procedures this Course to Altitude leg may be part of the published procedure.
For example, a procedure may dictate a climb to 5,500 feet, then turn left and proceed to the Missed Approach
Hold Point (MAHP). In this case, the altitude would appear in the list of waypoints as ‘5500
ft
’. Again, if the
aircraft altitude is lower than the prescribed altitude, a direct-to is established on a Course to Altitude leg
when the missed approach procedure is activated.
