The OBS key is used to initiate the missed approach,
as follows:
Press the OBS key after the SUSP annunciator
1.
appears. If you press the OBS key a second
time, the missed approach holding point
(MAHP; in this case "SWARM" intersection)
is automatically offered as the destination
waypoint.
NOTE: 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 heading instructions. The 400W-
series unit will guide you to the holding pattern,
along the 053° radial from LYH VOR.
3.
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 automati-
cally 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 (typically one
minute) to fly the inbound and outbound legs
of the hold.
4.
The 400W-series unit will provide course guid-
ance only on the inbound side of the holding
pattern. When leaving the holding pattern
to re-fly the approach (or another approach)
press the PROC key to "Select Approach?" or
"Activate Approach?" as previously described.
(Or, use the direct-to key to select another
destination.)
