Standard Holding, (Right Turns) Figure 17A

1) Sector A (Teardrop): If the reciprocal is between the heading index and 70 to the right

of the heading index, make a. teardrop entry. This is accomplished by turning the aircraft 30

into the depicted holding pattern.

2) Section B (Outbound Parallel): If the reciprocal is between the heading index and 110

to the left of the heading index, make a left turn to parallel the holding radial.

3) Section C (Direct Entry): If the reciprocal does not meet the criteria listed in 1 or 2 above,

turn the aircraft right to the reciprocal of the holding course and enter holding outbound from fix.

Non-standard Holding, (Left Turns) Figure 17B

1) Sector A (Teardrop): If the reciprocal is between the heading index and 70 to the left of

the heading index, make a teardrop entry. This is accomplished by turning the aircraft 30 into

the depicted holding pattern to a point 2nm offset from the turn point.

2) Sector B (Outbound Parallel): If the reciprocal is between the heading index and 110 to

the right of the heading index, make a right turn to parallel the holding radial. At the turn point,

turn the aircraft right to intercept the holding course with a 30 extra correction cut.

3) Sector C (Direct Entry): If the reciprocal does not meet the criteria listed in 1 or 2 above,

turn the aircraft left to the reciprocal of the holding course and enter holding outbound from fix.

In all cases, depicted and nondepicted holding, after reaching the holding fix, you must turn your

aircraft to enter holding. For the nonstandard pattern, the slope of the 70 line is reversed and

oriented on the holding side just as in the standard pattern.
