Missed approach point

MISSED APPROACH POINT (MAP) - A point during an instrument approach procedure at which, if the visual reference to continue the approach does not exist (i.e., the pilot cannot see the runway or visual guidance to the runway), ...

Missed approach point (MAP). A point prescribed in each instrument approach at which a missed approach procedure shall be executed if the required visual reference has not been established.
Mixed ice. A mixture of clear ice and rime ice.

Unlike a DA, a missed approach need not be initiated once the aircraft has descended to the MDH, that decision can be deferred to the missed approach point (MAPt).

The Middle Marker displays the missed approach point, meaning the aircraft must pull up and try again if the parameters are not in line for a safe landing.

A pilot executing a missed approach prior to the Missed Approach Point (MAP) must continue along the final approach to the MAP. The pilot may climb immediately to the altitude specified in the missed approach procedure.

Minimum Descent Altitude - The lowest altitude to which a crew may descend in an attempt to obtain visual reference to the runway when flying a non-precision approach. If the runway is not in sight at the Missed Approach Point (MAP) at or above the ...

It is normally the missed approach point, where the pilot must decide whether he can land safely. The inner marker is used only on certain approaches. Its light is white, and the tone is a series of Morse dots.
NDB Non-Directional radio Beacon.
