button, disengaging the autopilot to initiate a
missed approach. This cancels APR and ALT
modes and engages the flight director in ROL
(wings level) and PIT (Pitch Attitude Hold) at
GA pitch angle. A flashing AP is displayed and
a disconnect tone is heard. The pilot stabilizes
the aircraft in the climb and then may re-
engage the autopilot.
