I have been looking all over for a helpful explanation of holding patterns and none of them helped. However this helped me understand how to for the knowledge test. Thank you
This is awesome. I've been struggling with this 'Holding' thing for few days but after watched your video it just completely solved. Thank you so much!
*I want to take my written this December, so here I am. this was an awesome explanation, and your videos helped me pass my private this past summer 2018! thank you* :)
Thanks so much because I didn't make the first go because of the Holding introduction I didn't understand but now you have made my studies so much better on how the Holding Pattern works and you presented this to me that I'm now using my scratch paper to practice with my CFII so I'll be prepared and ready to pass my IRA exam
Thanks..Nice video. Very simple, clear and understandable explaination. Gives me a greater insight of how to quickly make a hold when recieving a command from the ATC in these three holding pattern procedure. Thank you very much!
Outstanding video guys! I have sent it to all of my instrument students. Personally, I would have loved to have seen you integrate the communications as required per AIM 5-3-3 into this presentation, but I know it was for the knowledge test. Keep up the great videos.
+TheRealHawkeye Thanks for your input! Communications are critical and deserve their own video, so we'll look into producing a video for that. Good flying!
2:51 & 4:20 The only thing that confused me is with illustrations, since they are right turns shouldn’t they be flipped? Was shown a trick, right turns use right thumb to cover right side of heading ind and wouldnt that mean the figure should be flipped?
So they give you a radial for a fix. That is a from radial. Ex: hold 90 on the xyz vor. You dial in 90 into the vor, you’ll be holding on the from side of the vor or west making right hand standard rate turn after your vor flips “from” to “to”. Fly the heading out towards 1 minute and make right turn fly 1 minute (vor will say from) once you cross the fix it flips to to. Entry is based on what sector you are inbound on in relation to the hold instructions. At least that’s how I understand it as a student.
@@dam4274Good I loved to meet new people and get to know each other with time and patience. Do you mind suggesting any means we can talk off here more often if you don't mind dear, You can email me with this ( lydiaanderson6060@gmail.com ) and continue our conversation as well dear.
I don’t seem to be able to to sort out this one: with the teardrop entry you are forced to fly in the opposite direction of everybody else already in the holding pattern. Doesn‘t that set you up for a head on collision? You haven‘t mentioned any altitude in the ATC communication to prevent that.
Good question. Altitude is a critical part of the hold clearance and is always included. The answer to your question is that multiple aircraft will NEVER be in the same hold.
thats a v good explanation - however we would need lots of practice examples to understand the procedure really well. best to do this with your cfi or someone who has ifr rating and would help out.
I have a dumb question, this imaginary line, how exactly do you orient it? Is it always going to be a NE/SW orientation or does it depend on aircraft location? Further clarification would be awesome. Great content too, keep it up!
Mate i think u wrong when its hold on radial 270 on the first example thats the OUTBAND leg is 270 coz the radial its from the vor in other words 270 leaving the VOR but facing the VOR it will be 090 radial and its the INBOND
Awesome graphics! Would love to see you breakdown this question on Figure 117 of the Instrument Exam, 2016 ASA Test Prep materials : You receive this ATC clearance: “...CLEARED TO THE XYZ NDB. HOLD NORTHEAST ON THE ZERO FOUR ZERO DEGREE BEARING FROM THE NDB. LEFT TURNS...” At station passage you note the indications in figure 117. What is the recommended procedure to enter the holding pattern? Note: The FAA has two instruments in the figure, entitled "Heading and ADF Indicators." The one on the left appears to be a VOR/Glideslope to me. The right is obviously an ADF. Drawing the hold from looking at this instruments has caused several hairs to be pulled out. Or shall I see, attempting to draw it. Thanks!
It was scary when my Husband and I were in one, I was really scared my Husband kept telling me to calm down but hate these holding patterns though!!!! Both our first time in a holding pattern!!!!
I used to do this in 2-crew King Air 200 & B1900 in Nunavut with only NDB approaches, down to minimums, 3-5 times a day. My brain at the end of the day was mush.
I don't get why there is even a teardrop entry as a choice. Who came up with that recommendation? No matter where you are coming from you can either enter direct or parallel. The sharpest turn to parallel on the teardrop side is way smaller than sharpest turn to parallel on the parallel side of the fix. Should only be 2 choices in my opinion
Why in god's name would they not say "fly 90 degrees to the fix", then you would know that the outbound course would be 270. Simpler. No wonder people have a hard time visualizing the hold.
I have been searching for an aid to help me understand holding patterns. This is the best I have come across. great job
Awesome, thank you!
Best explanation of holding patterns in 6 minutes I've ever come across! Thanks!
I had watched countless number of videos on holding entries before watching this, and this is by far the most helpful video. Thank you!

clearest explanation of holds I've seen. Thanks!!

This is taught like a pro...bravo
It couldn’t have been clearer.. thank you so much
2:51 & 4:20 The only thing that confused me is with illustrations, since they are right turns shouldn’t they be flipped?
Was shown a trick, right turns use right thumb to cover right side of heading ind and wouldnt that mean the figure should be flipped?
I don't understand the placing the line between the fix and the holding course dividing the area in 70* and 110* sectors.
5:46 why is the yellow line draw from NW towards SE? dont get it. I have headache and frustration
The inbound leg needs to be in the direct entry sector.
Draw the line through the fix so it crosses the bulk of the hold pattern.
That is for the non-standard left turn (reciprocal of the standard right turn). It's "the standard right turn" mirrors at the very first of the video.
Thank you sir! You did a great job at explaining this!
Glad it was helpful!
clear explaination ever for the holding pattern. Thank you.
simple and straight to the point ....thxxxxxxxx a million
What about hold west on the 090 radial? That changes what the turn looks like.
I’m new at this and hadn’t heard of holds till I saw this video. How do you know which direction to draw that line separating the three sections.
So they give you a radial for a fix. That is a from radial. Ex: hold 90 on the xyz vor. You dial in 90 into the vor, you’ll be holding on the from side of the vor or west making right hand standard rate turn after your vor flips “from” to “to”. Fly the heading out towards 1 minute and make right turn fly 1 minute (vor will say from) once you cross the fix it flips to to.

@Hello DAM8658, How are you doing?
@@lydiaanderson3312 Hello, never had anyone ask me that on YT before.

@@dam4274Hello how are you doing?
Awesome video!! But confused on the imaginary line thing that how did that come from?
This is the method I was taught and prefer. I hate using the rose and thumb methods, that may be useful for actual flying but not for a test.
Great Ground School and are you available to present more information on Holding demonstration on a approach chart
4:10 i dont get it. Why if you are on the 270radial you are flying 090 heading? Very confusing.
Rafael Degannes Because all radials are from the station not to.
You’re on the r-270 but your inbound heading is 090. Thing of it a you must go towards 090 to point A which means your 270 from point As presoective
Thanks for this useful explanations.
Loved the clear explanations. Would you draw this diagram in flight to figure out your pattern entry or is it just something we learn for the exam?
Fantastic explanation 👏 thank you 🙏
You are welcome!
Best explantion ever!

I thought so but must have missed that in the ATC clearance. Thank you for the clarificacion!
Very clear explanation, thanks.
Thank you for the best explanation ever
With the thumb rule on the second one it would be a teardrop did I think this wrong?
great explanation, thanks for sharing!
Nate, Simple explanation and content!
Great explanation !
great video thank you!!!

Whats your inbound course to the XYZ station?
If you'll look at GoldMethod instead of ASA I think you'll see the breakdown you're looking for.
this was great thankyou
Thank you a lot!!!!!!!!
It was scary when my Husband and I were in one, I was really scared my Husband kept telling me to calm down but hate these holding patterns though!!!! Both our first time in a holding pattern!!!!
I dont understand whats scary about them... you just fly in an oval lol
@@kellysunseri-adams8550 Being up there in the air for a long time is scary!!!!
@@kellysunseri-adams8550 the fuel running out or you hit another plane thats what i was scared of
good job.weldone
Thanks
Nice explanation but the first example doesn't match the test examples.
I'd love to see someone use this system in real flight, maybe at night with turbulence and possibly an inoperative A/P...
I used to do this in 2-crew King Air 200 & B1900 in Nunavut with only NDB approaches, down to minimums, 3-5 times a day. My brain at the end of the day was mush.
I dont understand
I just started my IFR training, I feel like I know nothing about flying even though I have my PPL and 115 hours. Lol
Wowww
GoldMethod? I smell trademark infringement...
Boldmethod and gold method lol what is this
GoldMethod is an actual "method" of knowledge transfer. It's not just a name.
I don't get why there is even a teardrop entry as a choice. Who came up with that recommendation? No matter where you are coming from you can either enter direct or parallel. The sharpest turn to parallel on the teardrop side is way smaller than sharpest turn to parallel on the parallel side of the fix. Should only be 2 choices in my opinion

Yep lost me lol
