The original "I don't know it all" of aviation.
A recently added feature to ForeFlight is the ability to create and plot ad-hoc holds. (See the current pilot’s guide starting at page 152.)
Has anyone had a chance to use it during a flight?
I’m curious as to what the PoA hive mind thinks about it.
What got me wandering in this direction was the question, “could I build a random hold and send that to the GNS530 via FlightStream and have the autopilot fly the hold?”
That was answered on page 154 as “No”.
But at least I now have something to aid in correctly visualizing the hold instructions.
