To reverse course in this instance, one can opt to either do only the entry into the hold or do the full circuit and then start inbound. Both will satisfy "course reversal requirements". I'll refer you to the AIM, but it basically comes down to the given scenario, rather or not you are ready to begin the inbound portion, and lastly rather or not ATC will be ###### you're taking so long to close the flight plan.Thanks Zach... That makes sense. I guess we just don't have this at all over here, or at least I had never had to fly such thing (so far). But good to know. In fact I do believe I brought this up during flight training back then, but don't hold me to that.
