A concept related to the missed approach point is the visual descent point (VDP).Determination of its location is done by the designers of the instrument approach procedure, but typically this is a point on the final approach course of a non-precision approach, from which the aircraft would be able to continue its descent from the MDA to the runway threshold while maintaining a standard 3 ...
English: Instrument approach chart for ILS RWY 17 of Tacoma Narrows Airport. Rules for a missed approach are highlighted in red. This chart from january 2012 is possibly outdated – DO NOT USE FOR NAVIGATION.
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
Generally, if a pilot determines by the time the aircraft is at the decision height (for a precision approach) or missed approach point (for a non-precision approach), that the runway or its environment is not in sight, [a] or that a safe landing cannot be accomplished for any reason, the landing approach must be discontinued and the missed ...
A back course marker (BC) normally indicates the ILS back-course final-approach fix where approach descent is commenced. It is identified by pairs of Morse-code "dots" at 3000 Hz (95 pairs per minute), which will trigger the white light on a marker beacon indicator, but with a different audio rhythm from an inner marker or en-route marker.
An onboard navigation system displays a constant rate descent path to minimums. The VNAV path is computed using aircraft performance, approach constraints, weather data, and aircraft weight. The approach path is computed from the top of descent point to the end of descent waypoint, which is typically the runway or missed approach point. [1]

The missed approach track is shown as a thin hash marked line with a directional arrow. Missed approach icons are in the upper left or right of the profile view. [1]: 16–25 Landing minimum are listed for either a straight-in landing, or a circling-to-land, for each aircraft approach category.
