II-4-1-2 Procedures — Aircraft Operations — Volume II
1.2.1.3 Sector 2 procedure (offset entry)
a) Overhead the fix, the aircraft is turned onto a heading so that the track makes an angle of 30° from the
reciprocal of the inbound track on the holding side; and
b) flown outbound:
23/11/06
1) for the appropriate period of time, where timing is specified; or
2) until the appropriate DME distance is attained, where distance is specified; or
3) where a limiting radial is also specified, either:
i) until the radial is encountered; or
ii) until the appropriate DME distance is reached, whichever occurs first; and then
c) turned right to intercept the inbound track to the holding fix.
1.2.1.4 Sector 3 procedure (direct entry)
Overhead the fix, the aircraft is turned right and follows the holding pattern.
1.2.1.5 Special VOR/DME holding entry procedure
1.2.1.5.1 For entry into a VOR/DME holding pattern an entry radial to a secondary fix at the end of the outbound
leg may be established (see Figure II-4-1-3 a) and b)). In this case Sector 1 and Sector 2 entries are not authorized.
1.2.1.5.2 The holding pattern will be entered directly along the entry radial or by the Sector 3 entry procedure.
Having reached the secondary fix, the aircraft will turn right and follow the holding pattern. In this case the entry radial
shall be published and clearly depicted.
1.2.2 Holding procedures
1.2.2.1 After completion of the sector entry, and overhead the fix for the second time (or on completion of a
subsequent holding pattern) the aircraft is turned to fly an outbound track:
a) for the appropriate period of time, if timing is specified; or
b) until the appropriate DME distance is reached if distance is specified; and that
c) on completion of the outbound leg the aircraft will be positioned for the turn onto the inbound track,
allowing for the effect of wind; and then
turned to intercept the inbound track to the holding fix.
1.2.2.2 See 1.3.2, “Timing and distance” for the application of timing and distance limitations.
