 The implementation status is (at time of writing):

+- Mission (flight) plans:
   - upload, download, clearing missions, and monitoring progress are supported as defined in this specification.
-- Geofence missions" are supported as defined in this specification.
-- Rally point "missions" are not supported on PX4.

+- Rally point plans are supported.

+  PX4 supports additionally supports the following non-standard behaviour:
+  - [MAV_CMD_NAV_LOITER_TO_ALT](../messages/common.md#MAV_CMD_NAV_LOITER_TO_ALT) items can also be added to the rally point plan.
+    Any of these declared immediately after `MAV_CMD_NAV_RALLY_POINT` may be used as [VTOL approach loiter waypoints](https://docs.px4.io/main/en/flight_modes_vtol/return#vtol-rally-point-approach-loiters).
+    VTOL can use these points in a fixed-wing return to define the location and radius of VTOL loiter-descent, and heading, prior to traveling to the final rally point.
+    If multiple loiter waypoints are specified, selection is autopilot-specific.
 
-Mission operation cancellation works for mission download (sets system to idle).
-Mission operation cancellation does not work for mission uploading; PX4 resends `MISSION_REQUEST_INT` until the operation times out.
+    ::: info
+    This is non-standard because it is only implemented by PX4 and broadly opposed by ArduPilot (limited initial discussion).
+    The argument is that rally points are not designed for this purpose, and that adding new allowed waypoints turns them into mini-missions.
+    These might be implemented in the mission plan.
