Missed Approach Altitude

[driver101]

Hi there,My FO is setting the missed approach altitude but every time approx.200 to 300 ft higher than the published altitude. I am on the correct altimeter setting. Maybe someone knows what's wrong?

Hi Jan,The FO doesn't "know" what the published altitude for the MAP is for a specific approach. So he uses a generic, best-guess figure. That's one bit of data we cannot currently get out of the FMC.Best,

Hi Bryan,Thanks! I was not aware of that. I think I can live with it. :-)
