Fr: point de cheminement de circuit d’approche interrompue
missed approach point The point on the final approach course that signifies the termination of the final approach and the commencement of the missed approach segment. It may be 
(a)
the intersection of an electronic glide path (GP) with a decision height (DH); 

(b)
a NAVAID located on the aerodrome; 

(c)
a suitable fix (e.g. distance measuring equipment (DME)); or

(d)
a specified distance beyond the NAVAID or final approach fix (FAF), not to exceed the distance from that NAVAID or fix to the nearest boundary of the aerodrome. 

. abbreviation: MAP
Fr: point d’approche interrompue
missed approach procedure The procedure that is to be followed after an instrument approach procedure (IAP) if, for any reason, a landing is not effected and that occurs normally
(a)
when the aircraft has descended to the decision height (DH), or has descended to the minimum descent altitude (MDA) and reached the missed approach point or waypoint, and has not established the required visual reference to land; or

(b)
when the aircraft is directed by ATC to pull up or to go around.

Fr: procédure d’approche interrompue
missed approach segment That part of an instrument approach procedure (IAP) between the missed approach point (MAP),  the missed approach waypoint (MAWP), or the point of arrival at decision height (DH), and the specified missed approach NAVAID, intersection, fix or waypoint, as appropriate, at the minimum IFR altitude. It is in this part of the approach procedure that the aircraft climbs and returns to the en route structure or is positioned for holding or a subsequent approach. The route of flight and altitudes are depicted on instrument approach charts.
. also called: missed approach
Fr: segment d’approche interrompue
missed approach turning waypoint The waypoint designated in the missed approach segment of an instrument approach procedure (IAP) to which the aircraft will automatically fly en route to the specified missed approach holding waypoint (MAHWP).

Fr: point de cheminement de virage d’approche interrompue
missed approach waypoint The waypoint on the final approach course that signifies the termination of the final approach segment and the commencement of the missed approach segment. It is normally located at the threshold of the landing runway.
