Key Takeaways:
- Pilots should slow down and manually note holding instructions rather than depending solely on avionics.
- Essential components of a holding pattern include identifying the holding fix, the direction to hold, the direction of turns (standard right unless specified left), and the inbound leg length (time or distance).
- It's critical to know the expected further clearance (EFC) time and plan for the next destination or procedure after leaving the hold.
