SOP type Non-precision approach question
At your airline, who calls out the Missed Approach Point when it is reached? I never really paid much attention to all of this until I started teaching a class regarding this stuff. At SkyWest, the Non-Flying Pilot does it and I am curious as to who is looking for the runway??? I can't even remember the last time I did one, and have never done one to minimums unless it is in the sim.
Thanks!
Thanks!

That is the way we have it on the ILS, but not the Non-precision. They started using ONLY CANPA's and took the Non-precision out of the SOP completely. Then they realized that some airports it wasn't a good idea to use CANPA's so they re-instated the basic, non-precision approach. Having the NFP call "Missed Approach Point" has go to be a typo. Thanks for the responses.

Here on the B757/767 at UPS the Pilot Monitoring calls out "Minimums" to which the Pilot Flying responds with either "Landing, Continuing or Go-Around." Upon reaching the Missed Approach Point the Pilot Monitoring calls out "Missed Approach/No Runway." The Pilot Flying responds with "Go-Around." This is right out of our AOM.

By that, I mean the NFP is looking outside and will make one of the following calls:
1) Go visual
2) Approach lights continue (to be followed by 1 or 3)
3) Go missed
Of course either guy can call missed approach for any reason, but in a textbook non-precision approach it will be the NFP.
