4-8-9. MISSED APPROACH
Except in the case of a VFR aircraft practicing an instrument approach, an approach clearance automatically authorizes the aircraft to execute the missed approach procedure depicted for the instrument approach being flown. An alternate missed approach procedure as published on the appropriate FAA Form 8260 may be assigned when necessary. Once an aircraft commences a missed approach, it may be radar vectored.
NOTE-
[1] Alternate missed approach procedures are published on the appropriate FAA Form 8260 only and require a detailed clearance when they are issued to the pilot.
[2] In the event of a missed approach involving a turn, unless otherwise cleared, the pilot will proceed to the missed approach point before starting that turn.
