INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION

Figure 13

The following explanations refer to the recommended entry section of the approach plate

depicted in Figure 13.

TEARDROP

Generally, the smallest quadrant depicted on the recommended entry section of the

approach plate is labeled TD (Teardrop). If your heading to the holding fix falls within the

ranges provided for TD quadrant, then you'll perform a teardrop entry. Upon reaching the

holding fix, you turn the aircraft 30 from the published outbound leg heading, to fly into the

holding pattern. Proceed on this heading until reaching the outer DME limit of the pattern, and

then turn to fly the inbound course to the holding fix. In Figure 14, the outbound leg has

published heading of 180, so you would turn 210 or 150, as appropriate, to fly through the

holding pattern to 18 DME.
