Default GPS is alright...

I just realized this - the default GPS will take you directly to the missed approach procedure if you keep flying on AP.... I never knew that huh!Does anyone know if the RXP units do this too?

I believe they will if you 'hit' the OBS key immediately after declaring a missed approach, just as I believe the actual Garmin units will.To be honest, I have never tried it, instead I hand fly, following direction of Radar Contact ATC, until I am requesting/cleared to re-enter the original approach fix. I then quickly re-set/enter the approach in the Garmin, and let the GPS do it's thing.

So, I guess that means you never read the nice manual that ACES included in the Learning Center, eh? :( ..\FSWeb\LearningCenter\Navigation\UsingTheGPS.htmThe default GPS will do a lot of things most folks don't know about! :(
