Learn how to determine an appropriate holding pattern entry using the heading indicator. For full details and the accompanying blog post, see: alexaviation.wordpress.com/20...
The best explanation for holds I’ve ever seen! Definitely much better than courses that require payments. Kudos to you sir! Check ride is less than a month. Wish me luck!
You're brilliant, and you're a naturally intuitive teacher. This is amazing. I'm not even a pilot, but I've got a passing interest in aviation procedures for some reason, and although this assumes some knowledge, I still fully understand it. I also like that you get right to the damn point and have no fluffy-ass intro and/or outro. Damn fine job.

I watched many videos about this subject and finally I found. Everbody teaches different methods but this is exactly what my instructor want. Some other methods are more easy but I need to be in coordination with my instructor.
Doing my ATPLs. This video really helped me understand the concept. Thank you so much. Flight school has made me realise that I’m very much a visual learner compared to being a note taker as a kid.
Your channel is so helpful, thank you! I am starting my instrument rating in a couple weeks and your videos are helping me to understand some of the fundamentals to IFR flying.
Hi, I think that the “clearance” should have stated that the hold would be INBOUND, and in your example, inbound on 270 radial. It got me confused at the beginning. Thanks.
Many students confuse "HEADING" and "RADIAL" (Radial ALWAYS leaves the VOR), Heading is the direction you're flying. When you take into consideration the WCA inbound and outbound legs at altitude, you're not flying a race track pattern any longer.
I was in one of these around La Guardia in New York,Airport it was really scary we were up in the sky to what seemed like hours Thank God I had my Husband with me, i was beginning to Panic!!!!!
This is good but I get confused at the part where we approach from... when coming in on the 210 radial, isn't that to the SW? After drawing the compass rose why you chose to come from the NE? not saying you're wrong I just don't understand that portion
I think I may have just answered my question myself...I think (if I am understanding correctly) the "teardrop" section needs to always be on the outside of the hold. Therefore, if you cut it from 11-4 oclock like I said, the teardrop would be on the wrong side. Yes?
Overall a clear and helpful explanation, but the "slashing out the biggest part of the hold" to find the entry procedure had me confused. It doesn't give any real information on how to draw that line.
Giacomo Simongini agree, not enough info in that statement. What I do is extend the inbound leg straight through the fix. Then move 70 degrees left around the fix and then slice it on that angle. The slice with the extended inbound beyond the fix gives you the 3 sections. (This is harder to explain without drawing a diagram, but I hope it makes sense.)
