The VOR Holding Pattern Quiz randomly sets up a VOR holding pattern and randomly locates your plane around the VOR. You are then quizzed on the identification of the hold and the entry to it.
- New plane location - will create a new quiz with the same holding pattern with the plane located at another random position.
- New hold - will create a new quiz with a new random holding pattern and clearance and random plane position.
- "The clearance" - displays the clearance for the current holding pattern.
- Color code:
- Yellow - answer this question now
- Red - incorrect answer, try again
- Green - correct
- The steps are:
- Locate radial - a green line will be drawn from the VOR to the mouse pointer - Figure 1. Move the mouse to the correct radial and click the mouse. Your answer is correct if it is within 3 degrees of the correct radial and the radial will be highlighted.
- Locate side - a green line will be drawn from the VOR to the mouse pointer. Move the mouse to the right or left side of the holding pattern radial and click the mouse - Figure 2. Your answer is correct if you have indicated the correct holding side.
- Select entry - click on the radio button to select the most appropriate entry to the holding pattern. Your answer is correct if you select the correct holding pattern entry.
- Outbound heading - a green line will be drawn from the VOR and the mouse pointer. Move the mouse to the heading to be flown after crossing the VOR when first entering the holding pattern. Clue - this question is reduntant unless you're to fly a teardrop entry.
Figure 1 - Locate radial
Figure 2 - Locate side
Setup tab - the VOR Holding Pattern Setup gives you the ability to change the plane's type and number and the VOR's name.
