The VFR corridor is at 3500 (No ATC communication required) and VFR transit routes are at 2500.

As published for LAX
MISSED APPROACH: Climb to 600 then climbing
left turn via heading 020^ to cross SMO R-095 at or
below 2000, then continue climb to 5000 via SMO
R-068 or POM R-248 to POM VORTAC and hold.
If some one goes missed at 2 miles, they are going to have a 6 or 7 track miles with a hard altitude limit of 2000 feet. Note - My previous comments are memory from guidance I was given (but don't have a reference).

Just our of curiosity, how often do inbound aircraft get sufficiently destabilised that they feel the need to go to TOGA 4 miles out? As compared to level off at say 1000 ft until the MAP
