Figure 5-53 Palmdale Missed Approach
In this instance, the leg corresponds to the initial phase
of the missed approach, which reads ‘Climb to 5000’
outbound via PMD VOR R-282’. Refer to Figure 5-53 for
the following steps.
1) After crossing the MAP, press the OBS Key.
The missed approach sequence is automatically
offered, starting with the course from fix
to altitude leg. The ‘NEXT DTK 282°’ alert
appears along the bottom of the screen.
2) Note that within a few seconds of pressing the
OBS
Key to release suspend mode and start the
approach sequence, ‘SUSP’ re-appears above
the
OBS Key as the GPS 500 returns to suspend
mode (Figure 5-54). This is normal when flying
a course from fix to altitude leg and indicates
that automatic leg sequencing is suspended.

3) Fly the outbound course. The Map Page depicts
the flight path extending indefinitely from PMD
VOR. The distance (DIS) on the Default NAV
Page, the Map Page, and the Active Flight Plan
Page increases, indicating the distance back to
PMD VOR.
4) Upon reaching the desired altitude (5000’),
press the OBS Key to return to automatic leg
sequencing. Confirm that ‘SUSP’ no longer
appears directly above the
OBS Key.
