initial approach point
11segments of an instrument approach procedure — An instrument approach procedure may have as many as five separate segments, depending on how the approach procedure is structured. The approach segments begin and end at designated fixes. However, under some circumstances certain segments may… …
12missed approach phases — There are three phases of a missed approach: initial, intermediate, and final. The initial phase begins at the missed approach point (MAPt) and ends at the point where the climb is established. No turns are specified in this phase, as the most… …
13Missed approach — Terminal procedures for an ILS approach, including Missed Approach instructions Missed approach is an instrument flight rules procedure which is a standard (but optional) component segment of an instrument approach.[1] Generally, if the pilot… …
14area navigation (RNAV) approach configurations — The approach configurations for area navigation are the standard T, modified T, standard I, and terminal arrival area. i. Standard T. An RNAV approach whose design allows direct flight to any one of three initial approach fixes (IAF) and… …
15intermediate approach — That part of an instrument approach procedure in which aircraft configuration, speed, and positioning adjustments are made. It blends the initial approach segment into the final approach segment. It begins at the intermediate fix or point and… …
16intermediate approach — That part of an instrument approach procedure in which aircraft configuration, speed, and positioning adjustments are made. It blends the initial approach segment into the final approach segment. It begins at the intermediate fix or point and… …
17instrument approach procedure — A series of predetermined maneuvers for the orderly transfer of an aircraft under instrument flight conditions from the beginning of the initial approach to a landing or to a point from which a landing may be made visually or the missed approach… …
18instrument approach procedure — A series of predetermined maneuvers by reference to flight instruments with protection from obstacles from the initial approach fix, or where applicable, from the beginning of a defined arrival route to a point from which a landing can be… …
19Dew point — The dew point is the temperature to which a given parcel of humid air must be cooled, at constant barometric pressure, for water vapor to condense into liquid water. The condensed water is called dew when it forms on a solid surface. The dew… …
20Infrared fixed point — In physics, an infrared fixed point is a set ofcoupling constants, or other parameters that evolve from initial values at very high energies (short distance), to fixed stable values,usually predictable, at low energies (large distance). This… …
