2 Hold at Waypoints (HOLD AT)
A holding fix creates a new HOLD AT waypoint following the leg to that
waypoint.
Displayed on the RTE LEGS page in the proper route sequence after executing the
related MOD RTE HOLD page.
3 ROUTE DISCONTINUITY
The entered route must always form a continuous path of linked legs.
The example depicts a HOLD AT entry where the entry was not a downpath
waypoint.
The FMC computes a direct course to the off–route holding fix.
The HOLD AT waypoint becomes a termination identifier which is not part of the
existing route. The resulting route discontinuity is identified by box prompts,
requiring entries to define the route after PLUSS.
