ILS - Decision Altitude or Decision Height

Non-Precision Approach - Missed approach point (reached at Minimum Descent Altitude/Height)

Most operators will fly a predetermined approach angle to enable them to execute a missed approach at a predetermined point which is before the actual MAP. Aircraft below 5700kg do not have the high energy of larger aicraft, so a level MDA/H can be flown to the MAP. Hope this helps.
