What Causes a Hold to be Issued?

Featured Replies

If the "Hold for WX" option is checked (and there is a VOR withinfive miles of the destination airport listed on the saved flightplan),are holds issued based on the weather parameters, or on the amount of traffic?What I'm aiming for are scenarios where the chances of a holdare a little better than 50%.Thanks in advance.Slugger

page 53 of the manualsince we're trying to be a realistic, holding doesn't happen 50% of the time.it's based on weather (and other factors that we don't take into account).in previous versions we were less realistic, and had a slider from 0 to 100% - we improved that in v4jd

Thanks for the reply, jd. I thought the amount of AI trafficmight also be a factor, so thanks for clearing that up for me.Best, Slugger
