Maximum speed during missed approach.

Hi folks

I have a lot of discussions about this topic with some of my fellow colleagues, and I'm seeking for clarification.

This is the question:
According to ICAO, the maximum speed during the final missed approach phase for a CAT B aircraft is 150 kts.
Now on some missed approach procedures which include turns, there might be some speed limitations published on the Jepp plates, for example max. 185 kts.
Now, even though there is the above mentioned max speed of 185 kts in the turn, when I plan to use the CAT B minima, I'm still restricted to the 150 kts, am I not?

Can someone confirm/disconfirm this, preferably with some legal grounds?


Thanks

I’m confused, why fly the maximum speed?
Max speeds on the chart are to prevent excessive turn radius over a waypoint.
What airplane are we talking about?

OK, let me rephrase it: On the Jepp plate I have separate minimums for my ILS approach. One for CAT A, one for CAT B, one for CAT C and one for CAT D.
In the missed approach, there is a speed limit in the turn, labeled with max. 185 kts.
What is the maximum speed in the missed approach with a CAT B aircraft? (doesn't matter which CAT B aircraft...)

It’s 150 kts according to this:

Indeed, this isn't a flight test question.
