APPENDIX D
WHAT IS THE CORRECT MISSED APPROACH PROCEDURE? HOW IS THE MISSED APPROACH HOLDING POINT SELECTED?
To comply with TSO specifications, the G1000 does not automatically sequence past the MAP. The first
waypoint in the missed approach procedure becomes the active waypoint when the SUSP Softkey is selected
after crossing the MAP. All published missed approach procedures must be followed, as indicated on the
approach plate.
To execute the missed approach procedure prior to the MAP (not recommended), select the Active Flight Plan
Page and use the ACT LEG Softkey to activate the missed approach portion of the procedure.
AFTER A MISSED APPROACH, HOW CAN THE SAME APPROACH BE RE-SELECTED? HOW CAN A NEW APPROACH BE
ACTIVATED?
NOTE : Do not attempt to reactivate the current approach prior to crossing the missed approach point
(MAP). If an attempt to do so is made, the alert message “Are you sure you want to discontinue the current
approach?” appears. If the current approach is reactivated, the G1000 provides direction back to the
transition waypoint and does not take into consideration any missed approach procedures.
After flying the missed approach procedure, the pilot may reactivate the same approach for another attempt
from the Procedures Window (opened by pressing the
PROC Key). Once the clearance is given for another
attempt, activate the approach from the Procedures Window by highlighting “Activate Approach?” using the
large
FMS Knob and pressing the ENT Key. The G1000 provides navigation along the desired course to the
waypoint and rejoins the approach in sequence from that point.
To activate a new approach for the same airport, select the new procedure from the Procedures Window.
Choose “Select Approach?”, select the desired approach from the list shown, and press the
ENT Key. Select the
desired transition, then activate the approach using the ENT Key.
To activate a new approach to a different airport, press the Direct-to Key and select the desired airport
using the
FMS Knob. Press the ENT Key to accept the selected airport, then follow the steps in the preceding
paragraph to select an approach for the new airport.
