Question: When flying an IFR approach, what is the latest point at which a pilot must decide to execute a missed approach if the required visual references are not obtained?
Answer options:
- The Final Approach Fix (FAF)
- The Missed Approach Point (MAP) ✅ The Decision Altitude/Height (DA/H)
- The Minimum Descent Altitude/Height (MDA/H)
Correct answer: The Decision Altitude/Height (DA/H)
Explanation: For precision approaches, if the required visual references are not obtained at the Decision Altitude/Height (DA/H), a missed approach must be executed. For non-precision approaches, this point is the Missed Approach Point (MAP) at the MDA/H.
