Abstract: A holding pattern aid apparatus to enable a pilot in instrument conditions to instantly visualize a holding pattern and determine an appropriate entry procedure, is disclosed. The aid is configured to attach to a kneeboard while permitting the pilot to flip the display from right to left holding pattern with one hand or even the flick of a finger. The apparatus also indicates the appropriate teardrop outbound course and parallel intercept course, as well as providing instant reciprocal headings and a DME Arc aid. A lanyard attach point enables the pilot to quickly find the holding pattern aid when loose and prevents the aid from becoming lost in the cockpit should it become detached from the kneeboard.
