Can You Read This Miami ILS 8R Approach Plate?

ILS·Miami International (KMIA)·RWY 8R·10 Questions·Premium

Miami International sits at sea level on the Florida coast, yet the ILS RWY 8R carries an unusually high height-above-touchdown because of obstacles — a detail that catches pilots out. The plate also features a climbing LEFT-turn missed approach to BRBRA on the DHP R-335, a combined IF/IAF at KROME, and MALSR lighting. This quiz tests whether you can parse a deceptive plate accurately.
