Heathrow Airport MATS pt.2.

Section 1 (3.3)

3.3.2 VISUAL CHANGES OF LANDING RUNWAY

Controllers must be aware that any aircraft that is instructed to visually switch to an alternate runway, in the event of a missed approach, may expect to follow the instrument missed approach procedure for the original runway. Obviously this is not appropriate, therefore, if the aircraft is subsequently instructed to execute a missed approach, the procedure used must be included in the instruction.

This is not the standard international procedure, therefore controllers must place particular emphasis on ensuring that traffic making a visual approach will, if the need arises, execute the correct missed approach.
