Summary

Description
English: non-precision Instrument approach:
  • MDA = minimum descent altitude
  • MDH = minimum descent height
  • MAPt = missed approach point
  • green line: runway in sight → continue descent below MDA/H
  • red line: runway not in sight
    • before reaching MAPt → hold altitude
    • when reaching MAPt → missed approach/go around
Deutsch: Mindestsinkflughöhe:
  • MDA = minimum descent altitude
  • MDH = minimum descent height
  • MAPt = missed approach point (Fehlanflugpunkt)
  • grüne Linie: Landebahn/-befeuerung in Sicht → weiter sinken
  • rote Linie: Landebahn/-befeuerung (noch) nicht in Sicht
    • MAPt noch nicht erreicht → Höhe halten
    • wenn MAPt erreicht und Landebahn/-befeuerung noch nicht in Sicht → missed approach/Durchstarten
