Holding Pattern Entries Made Easy - MzeroA Flight Training

[@romangrigoriev3006]

This video is responsible for about 10 points on my written test. Thanks, Jason.

[@pilotshaq507]

Really, I need help

[@signmanbob3834]

Jason, you're a natural born teacher. You make everything easy to understand.

[@asd1245d]

i totally agree!

[@AllegeK]

Totally

[@airmett8939]

Take the radial number and find where it is if you put the plane on a compass. Nose to right wing: tear drop Nose to left wing: parallel Behind the plane: direct For left turns basically the same, just tear drop and parallel are switched.

[@ahmadtheaviationlover1937]

thanks that helps a lot!

[@whoanelly737-8]

Nose to right wing is 90 degrees. Same for Nose to left. A hold entry is based on 70/110 degrees. Your suggestion isn't suitable for a flight test or training. In practice, in the real-world, good advice.

[@xpeterson]

Whoa Nelly that always annoyed me about exams. Does heading 180 qualify as an East or West bound course for the purposes of selecting an altitude for flight planning? I use to know. Now all I remember is that it was a really big deal that I knew it once upon a time. In practice, I just know that if I’m flying in a general north or south bound heading, I’ll be more mindful of opposite direction traffic.

[@RealGoldRealWealth]

@@xpeterson Actually altitude planning is not based on your heading, it's base on your Track (Course).

[@shraviator]

And just like that....the lightbulb moment I was waiting to experience on this concept finally happened....thank you Jason...your heading indicator method is fantastic

[@SorenHume]

I mean.. I swear I've seen a few of these videos with similar words, but I'm right there with you. It only clicked during this video

[@owengao1119]

Thank you Jason, back in 2015 my friend and I watched your videos to learn more out of the ground shcool. Now my friend became a flight instructor and I'm working in an airline company. After so many years I almost forgot the holding procedure ,so thanks again for this great video ,really helpful.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

That is awesome!

[@thiagotoscano4397]

Best holding pattern explanation i’ve seen so far. Thank you!!

[@collinpike7023]

This made unpublished holds so clear. Thank you.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@thegarre]

Easiest technique and most applicable to the cockpit imo 👏🏼

[@IslandSimPilot]

Not only do you explain it in a way that you can understand, but I won't forget this either. Thanks Jason!

[@marceloskyrioca]

OMG this was the easiest way that anyone could explain how to understand and do the right hold pattern, no finger, paper or anything and explanation was done. Thank you very much.

[@runway313]

I've been working on my instrument rating over the past year and have been struggling with identifying holds quickly and properly entering them. I have heard of a bunch of techniques but this one is really sticking with me. Just drawing the line to the center and finishing the race track is really helping. I'm training near the Detroit Bravo airspace so I don't have much time to mentally set up my holds and this video perfect for me. This just might help me pass!

[@ashkanfered]

This mans videos got me through the private phase of training. Jason, you’re a real MVP in the aviation community.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Thanks for your support!

[@ashkanfered]

@@MzeroAFlightTraining I will gladly be purchasing your instrument ground course!

[@hawk8263]

This is by far the best explanation I've found yet. I'm sure everybody is different but this is the one that clicked for me.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Thanks for the kind words! Glad we could help!

[@nelsonmabeyo3920]

OMG, thank you so much Jason, this is by far the best way to know which entry to make, soo easy to picture in quick situations in the cockpit. Thanks for making me a better Pilot.

[@sydneyjane4599]

I've been sitting in Instrument ground all quarter and couldn't figure this stuff out. You're a god among men and you've helped me through all of my ratings thus far, bless up!

[@kristjan2130]

actually a very simple and perfect explanation, been struggling with this but now i understand!

[@imflyboy_]

This is by far the best explanation I found, you are a great teacher, thank you!

[@daniellespeck8534]

I’ve been struggling with holds for what seems like forever. This 8 minute video just made it click for me! Thank you so much for creating content like this!

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Happy it helped! Thanks for watching!

[@atharvab1692]

Jason you are the best! Perfectly understood the holding!

[@sanoursanour7192]

The best explanation in KZbin god bless you

[@SierraLimaSL]

my go to video for entry holdings, thanks Jason!

[@solgoode1]

This finally has made sense to me. Been thinking about it off and on for a long time. This video is extremely helpful. Thanks : )

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tanweercaa]

Soooperb explanation, I am an Air Traffic Controller from Pakistan, never got such an easy description on this topic, very nice.

[@Jorge-ef4du]

This is waaaaay to good to be true. You just made it so easy

[@StormChaser290]

Timeless...and so clearly explained. Thanks Jason!

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@joeyquiles5103]

Great tip on holding pattern entry! Made it so easy. Thanks Jason.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

[@pilot.benito9880]

This is fantastic! I was trying to get VOR holds to solidify in my head and this video did it for me! Thanks Jason!!!

[@micahokeiley]

That was seriously a great way to explain entry! I will be working this info into my toolkit! Thank you!!

[@raydelahoussaye4083]

starting to work on my IFR. This really made it much easier to visualize if I were in the cockpit, great stuff!

[@TheHeldercorrea]

Phenomenal explanation! Thank you sir.

[@joachimp4265]

Very, very nice explained. Thank you very much.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

You are welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@UTarcher72]

Great lesson. Different from what my instructor taught and much easier to learn and visualize. Another great tidbit to help me pass my checkride

[@jarenhudson9794]

That actually helps a lot - stick your fix in the middle - center the needle to head direct, read the radial and fly that heading, then find the desired inbound course and draw a mental racetrack around it to determine what entry makes staying on the protected side easiest. Mind blown.

[@Thatguyprice]

Jason is the GOAT

[@Dragonrc.]

hmmm that is probably the best way I have seen to do this in the cockpit. Nice!

[@pritchettaviation1120]

That just made holding entries easy! Thanks!

[@dr.aviator]

Love this guy's methodology!!!

[@chrisbautista827]

Thank you so much! Helped me understand how to visualize the holding pattern and entry while flying.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching, Chris!

[@avee8ter]

This helps so much. Thanks Jason!

[@capt.jassimbaluch4339]

You know what actually matters, “in the cockpit 100kts right next to cfi”.... best video for holding patterns being visualized in flight deck.

[@13htorrespr]

Good video, cleared some doubts I had about holding patterns and how to enter them. I’m starting IFR training soon and this helps me understand the topic better.

[@paulbryla7387]

Thank you for this very informative video, Jason! Keep them coming!

[@komalzafar7504]

So happy to find ur video! Today is my IR check! Keep it up!

[@pilotactor777]

well explained Jason.

[@tswitz117]

This is fantastic! This works better than the “thumb” method for me.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching, Todd!

[@sebastianromero5852]

This helped me so much! Thank you!

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Im so glad! Thanks for watching!

[@Brandon_Lowe]

Thank you so much Jason! It just wasn't clicking in the ground school I'm in, your way shows me not only how to successfully answer it on the test but also in real life which was lacking in the ground school. (Not MzeroA Ground school BTW :( maybe I should rethink my decisions)

[@navneetkumargulia6961]

Awesome Instructor.

[@NickLaoutaris]

yeah , best CFI IIIII and whatever else , ever ! Hands down !!

[@AroundTheGlobeTrotters]

Best one I've seen so far. Thank You...

[@abrahamnemani3907]

Excellent, nicely done. Thank you.

[@PilotPhotog]

Thank you! I am working on holds and this is super helpful, will try on today’s flight.

[@abbieamavi]

*explanarion was amazing! The tip was a little confusing tho, I think I’ll use the thumb one instead. Great video as always Jason!*

[@jeraldkonkel]

That made it very simple to understand, thank you

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

[@stephenmorgan3036]

Jason, every instructor I've ever had, has some really good memory tips to help students or upgrading pilots to easily grasp procedures. Yours are especially great. Keep up the excellent work. (Oh, BTW, you need to fix that misspelled graphic with the word "parallel" spelled 'parellel.)

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Thanks for the kind words and feedback, Stephen!

[@lloydsheppard1498]

Am a really rusty pilot, have Private with multi engine rating, have not flown since 2017 my Cessna 172 crashed September of that year, but am thinking of getting back flying just from watching your training info.

[@vittoriafiorentini8276]

😍 love you! Please some videos about IFR. THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching, Vittoria!

[@tonyh3308]

Thanks Jason. Really nice! Next time you do this I think it would help if you made a note that the diagram shows your heading AFTER you've changed course and are now aimed at the VOR. Maybe you could even show on the heading indicator a change in direction toward the VOR after the ATC directive and then do this awesome trick. Also, when ATC says "hold SOUTHWEST", you don't have to even think about where NSEW you are because ATC is giving you the radial that is SW and you are always doing a R hand turn. That used to trip me up--trying to figure out if I was holding in the correct compass position--don't need to even think about it.

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

I love the way you teach, just wish the MzeroA wasn't a monthly fee and so expensive. I used you guys for my PPL.

[@marcobrenes9223]

Great great video. Not too much like this on KZbin. Thanks, simple explanation 👍🏼

[@Aviyaytor]

Great job, Jason.

[@rontourage7384]

Thanks Jason for the tips! Nobody has explained it this way before. You might want to share this with Jeppesen! 😀

[@MzeroAFlightTraining]

///RONTOURAGE /// no problem! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@KyleTeichert]

This was very helpful! Thank you so much! I was wondering if you could teach a best practice video of flying the outbound leg, finding the proper heading using the VOR instrument, and timing the outbound leg not knowing the wind, all while managing altitude and the other flight instruments.

[@hempelcx]

That's all covered in his online ground school for instrument.

[@rubenmercado5226]

good job again and again....

Nicely explained

[@ronaldoseraphin6875]

awesome hint, you got a new subscriber!!

[@gwolf9094]

Thank you very much, I used this in my simulator interview and i passed

[@n0rg]

This video is about the same as the 2012 one, except for some front-end explanations. I wish you'd show the "pencil" method where you'd put a line across the whole card and show the 40 degrees part to define the direct, parallel or teardrop entry. Great explanations.

[@listerneiltianchon8886]

This is a lot better than other tutorials. Im just confuse as always the location of the plane.

[@justme197511]

Jason question for you, any helicopter training video in the future? Or are you strictly fixed wing...

[@gansosmansos]

Genius technique

[@Donderi]

Jason - typo at 1:44. Parallel. Cheers - love the videos.

[@samtaylor1669]

what determines the protected leg of the holding pattern?

[@Windtee]

It's known as the protected "side" of the holding pattern and there isn't one variable determining the holding-side, but many. There are published and unpublished holds. Published holds are seen on charts and unpublished holds, similar to Jason's examples, are given to the pilot via radio by ATC which are not printed. Published and unpublished holding-sides are predetermined by known ground-obstacles, traffic flow, traffic separation, terrain, weather, atmospheric phenomena, ATC radar limitations, and controller's discretion. In short, it depends.

[@GreenGuyDIY]

The direct answer is all of the space around the hold is protected or more correctly controlled and perhaps the term protected leg is a misnomer. It is possible that someone could be in the space not in coordination with ATC but that is a different subject and if the case ATC would not be holding anyone there. Your question may infer that there is a line that if not crossed guaranties your safety and knowing exactly where that line is would help you to stay safe. Sorry to say that if you tried to construct all of the lines that you should not cross while piloting the plane you would be very distracted and not safe regardless of position. Suffice it to say that there is the holding side and the non-holding side and if you are flying the hold on the non-holding side then you not in compliance with either the ATC instructions or the published information and as such you have 1) deviated from instructions and may need to do some explaining, and 2) created a problem for ATC.
