Explanation:
Holding is a predetermined maneuver that keeps aircraft within a specified airspace while awaiting further clearance from ATC. ... A standard holding pattern uses right turns, and a nonstandard holding pattern uses left turns.There are three types of standard holding entries: direct, parallel, and teardrop. They're simple procedures to help you establish your aircraft in the hold.A standard holding pattern uses right-hand turns and takes approximately 4 minutes to complete (one minute for each 180-degree turn, and two one-minute straight ahead sections).
