    Why a 1-minute "inbound" leg on holding patterns?

    Anyone know why right hand turns became the standard, instead of left hand as in traffic patterns? Mike

    Parallel Entry Question

    That's why I teach it that way. Intercept the inbound course. Another reason is there is less chance of missing the fix due to winds.

    ICAO flight plan codes

    You can certainly add all the PBN codes also, but practically, there are not too many Sids, Stars and approaches that require PBN that most GA pilots will use at the moment.
