Interpretation of High Altitude Instrument Approach Plates
T-45A UJPT & E2-C2 INav-07
3. Holding patterns
a. Arrival holding pattern
(1) Use until you are cleared to proceed beyond IAF onto
approach
(2) Thin solid line with notations indicates inbound/outbound
headings and direction of pattern (clockwise or counter-
clockwise); clockwise turns are a standard pattern
(3) Provides DME limits for TACAN, VORTAC, and VOR/DME
approach, otherwise standard holding limits apply (separate
VOR and TACAN holding may be depicted on the same
plate)
(4) Entry diagram found in upper right corner of planview
(a) Use for transitioning from route or feeder facility to
arrival holding pattern
(b) Same pattern as depicted on planview
(c) Headings given on diagram are inbound headings to
the IAF
NOTE: "Holding in lieu of procedure turn" pattern
normally not used on high altitude approach plates.
b. Missed approach holding pattern
(1) Use after executing a missed approach
(2) Dashed line with notations indicates inbound/outbound
headings and direction of pattern (clockwise or counter-
clockwise)
(3) Limits will be specified only if pattern nonstandard, or DME
fixes may be shown
4. Concentric circles on planview
a. Within 20-mile radius circle around navigation facility: features
encircled by bold print line are to scale
b. Feeder and high altitude facilities--NAVAIDs
(1) Orientation to approach pattern
(a) Distance/course to IAF
(b) May show bearing/distance to transitional or holding
fixes
