:( After reading the section on holding patterns in the manual, I have a question:The example that is given is a hold at MEM. From what I gather, unless I'm reading it wrong, you are to start an outbound turn at the 40 mile fix. Does this mean that you start your pattern 40 miles BEFORE MEM? I thought you would start your outbound leg just over top of MEM and then fly away from MEM and back towards it again. If you have to start your pattern 40 miles before the waypoint, that's gonna be tough with DreamFleet, cause I think you can only hold AT a waypoint, not before it.I must be interpreting this incorrectly.Thanks, AdamP.S. People with v.3, please tell me if you did a hold and how it went with RCATC. I want every detail! :-lol

outbound turn starts at 40 miles FROM memif you choose 20 mile legs, your inbound turn starts at 60 miles FROM mem

I'm a v3 beta tester. I fly holds the same way I did with previous versions of RC...either by engaging the autopilot heading hold or--here's a wacky idea--actually flying the plane. :)Also, if you choose holding vectors your RC co-pilot can fly the hold for you. The co-pilot cannot fly a holding pattern.Sidney Schwartz [KPDX]Horizon Pilot--flight plans and scenery for FS2002http://sidneyschwartz.homestead.com/index.html

I don't know about DreamFleet, but with the PSS airbus I create a place/bearing/distance waypoint 40 miles away from the VOR and then use the MCDU lateral revision page to fly a hold about that waypoint.This is with RC 2, of course - I assume RC 3 will be the same.Ian

detailed instructions on "holding patterns" and "delay vectors" can be found on pg 32 of the RCv3 manual.John
