# Recheck Required - altitude deviations before being on a published portion of the approach - [ ] review TAA vs MSA altitudes for different approach procedures - [ ] review importance of clarifying with ATC when unsure of instructions - circling approach procedure # 1A5 RNAV-A ![[1A5 RNAV A.PDF]] - instructed to maintain 8,000, cleared direct DAYEL, then cleared for the approach - ==**descended to 7,000 before crossing DAYEL**== - remember that this approach does not have a Terminal Arrival Area, meaning that you cannot descend to the published MSA or published altitude until on a published portion of the approach - either way, the published MSA is 7,900 feet - when cleared for the straight in approach, you can reload the approach if you would like - remember that the redbird will not let you delete a holding pattern from the approach procedure but the airplane will allow you to do that - ==either way good decision to disconnect the autopilot and hand fly when you realized that it was not doing what you wanted it to do== - almost cancelled IFR in the air while in instrument conditions on the approach - you caught yourself, but remember you cannot cancel in IMC in controlled airspace (this would be a violation of [91.173](https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/section-91.173)) - ==**did not add any flaps crossing JASVU (FAF)**== - crossed KUYES and continued flying for a while before executing missed approach proced # KLEE RNAV 4 Circle 31 - when cleared for the approach (direct PUNQU), went ahead and started to descend down to 2,000 feet - instead of unsuspending sequencing going missed, activated the leg from MANSEQ to MAMBO - overshot circling runway by about 30-40 degrees and then went missed at about 200 feet - went right to the edge of 1.3 nm radius $\rightarrow$ need to be very careful about this
