Just reviewing some single engine procedures. If you look at IAH ILS or LOC RWY 27, the initial missed instructions are," Climb to 520, then climbing left turn to 3000'...." The acceleration height for RWY 27 is 597. So, I have heard different instructors say different things about a single engine missed approach. Group 1 instructors say that when conducting a single engine missed, you wait until reaching acceleration height (597') before making the left turn. Group 2 instructors say that you can make the left turn at 520', even if single engine. Group 2 instructors argue the 520' would give you single engine obstacle clearance. If you go by group 2 instructors, what would be the point of having an acceleration height? Please tell me what you think.
