HOLDING
PATTERN
GS
1. Approaching the STL VORTAC, the con-
troller asks you to hold southwest of the
VORTAC on the 244° radial, right turns.
You are now over the station with a 064°
course selected (the TO/FROM indicator
has swung to "FROM"). Set your heading
bug to the reciprocal or outbound heading
of 244° for easy reference and begin your
right turn holding pattern.
GS
3. Outbound, you are using the heading bug as
reference for 244°. The 244° radial is off
the right wing and parallel to your outbound
course.

2. Halfway through the outbound turn, the KI
525A display shows the deviation bar
behind the symbolic aircraft. You know,
therefore, that you must eventually fly back
to the radial in order to be on course during
the inbound leg of the holding pattern.
GS
4. Halfway through your turn to the inbound
064° course, the KI 525A shows the sym-
bolic aircraft approaching the deviation bar
at a right angle. By keeping the top of the
deviation bar on the lubber line, you can
complete your turn and roll out precisely on
course.
Note: For system limitations refer to your
Flight Manual Supplement.
