AIP ENR 1.5 -10 Missed Approach Tracking
1.10.2 In executing a missed approach, pilots must follow the missed approach procedure specified for the instrument approach flown. In the event that a missed approach is initiated prior to arriving at the MAPT, pilots must fly the aircraft to the MAPT and then follow the missed approach procedure...
You weren't wrong trojan.
Exactly. 1.10.2 does not tell you when to start the climb - it says fly to the MAPt and followed the MA procedure. Yet there are other references (including in the plates themselves) that make allowances for starting the climb as soon as the Missed Approach is commenced prior to the MAPt.
