Flying the Missed Approach

After you pass the MAP, if the runway isn't in sight you must execute a missed
approach. The GNC 420 con-
tinues to give guidance along
an extension of the final course
segment (FAF to MAP) until
you manually initiate the missed
approach procedure (as men-
tioned previously in reference to
O
the "SUSP" advisory). The
key is used to initiate the missed
approach, as follows:
1. Press the
key. The missed
O
approach holding point (MAHP; in
this case "SWARM" intersection) is automatically offered as the destination waypoint.
In some cases, an additional hold waypoint is added to the missed
approach sequence. This additional waypoint is used as an aid in
establishing the holding pattern—especially where the MAP and
MAHP are the same waypoint.
2. Follow the missed approach procedures, as published on your approach plate, for proper climb and head-
ing instructions. The GNC 420 will guide you to the holding pattern, along the 053° radial from LYH VOR.
3a. An alert message in the lower right hand corner of the screen will recommend entry procedures for
the holding pattern (i.e., "HOLD DIRECT", "HOLD PARALLEL", or "HOLD TEARDROP"). As you fly
the holding pattern, a timer appears on the default NAV page. The timer automatically resets on the
outbound side of the hold when you are abeam the hold waypoint. The timer again resets as you turn
inbound (within approximately 30° of the inbound course). This allows you to use standard timing (typi-
cally one minute) to fly the inbound and outbound legs of the hold.
