  Visual approach slope indicator (VASI) g) Touchdown zone or touchdown zone markings h) Touchdown zone lights i) Runway or runway markings j) Runway lights Missed Approaches A MAP is formulated for each published instrument approach and allows ... climb pitch attitude should be established while setting climb power. Configure the aircraft for climb, turn to the appropriate heading, advise ATC that a missed approach is being executed, and request further clearances. If the missed approach…

  Chapter 10: IFR Flight › Approach to an Airport With an Operating Tower, With an Approach Control › Approaches to Parallel Runways

  ensure separation between aircraft on the adjacent parallel approach course. The approach procedure chart includes the note “simultaneous approaches authorized RWYS 14L and 14R,” identifying the appropriate runways. When advised that simultaneous parallel approaches ... advise approach control immediately of malfunctioning or inoperative components. Parallel approach operations demand heightened pilot situational awareness. The close proximity of adjacent aircraft conducting simultaneous parallel approaches mandates strict compliance with all ATC clearances and approach…

  calculate the fuel, time, and distance required to descend from the cruising altitude to the approach gate altitude for the specific instrument approach at the destination airport. While in flight prior to the descent, it is important ... missed approaches that require a sufficient amount of fuel that should be calculated prior to starting the descent. In order to plan the descent, the pilot needs to know the cruise altitude, approach gate altitude or initial approach…

A visual approach is an ATC authorization for an aircraft on an IFR flight plan ... proceed visually to the airport of intended landing; it is not an IAP. Also, there is no missed approach segment. When it is operationally beneficial, ATC may authorize pilots to conduct a visual approach to the airport…
