PROCEDURES

10)When approaching the FAF, a waypoint alert (‘NEXT DTK 026°’) appears in the lower right corner. Make any course adjustments necessary for the final course segment (FAF to MAP).

11)After crossing the FAF, the destination sequences to the MAP (‘RW04’, the runway threshold, see Figure 6-20). Fly toward the MAP.

course continues. If a missed approach is required, use the OBS Key to initiate the missed approach sequence, as outlined, beginning on the following page.

Figure 6-20 Sequence to MAP

NOTE: When viewing the Map Page, note that the final course segment is displayed in magenta (the active leg of the flight plan always appears in magenta) and a dashed line extends the course beyond the MAP. The dashed line is provided for situational awareness only and should NOT be used for navigation. Follow the published missed approach procedures.

12)When approaching the MAP, a waypoint alert (‘APPRCHING WPT’) appears in the lower right corner.

13)After crossing the MAP, ‘SUSP’ appears above the OBS Key (Figure 6-21), indicating that automatic sequencing of approach waypoints is suspended at the MAP. A ‘from’ indication is displayed on the CDI and Default NAV Page, but course guidance along the final approach

Flying the Missed Approach

After passing the MAP, if the runway isn’t in sight the pilot must execute a missed approach. The GNS 530 continues to give guidance along an extension of the final course segment (FAF to MAP) until the pilot manually initiates the missed approach procedure (as mentioned previously in reference to the ‘SUSP’ advisory).
