NEW HOLD [6L]: Displayed only if there is no route modification in process. Access to the RTE LEGS 1/X
page to define a new holding pattern (/H in scratchpad).
CANCEL [6L]: Cancel the changes made to the inactive route.
ERASE [6L]: Used to erase all route modifications in progress including HOLD definition. The prompt is not
available for inactive route modifications.
SPD/ALT [1R]: Displays speed/altitude constraints for the hold. The constraint values may or may not
correspond to the waypoint on the RTE LEGS 1/X page (The speed inbound to the holding fix may differ from
that of the holding fix itself).
Altitude display can be in feet or FL. If waypoint is before the midway point of the active route, Transition
Altitude is used. If waypoint is after the midway point of the active route, Transition Level is used.
The speed/altitude constraints extracted from the navigation database is displayed in small font. Manual entry
of speed/altitude constraints is displayed in large font. Refer to field ALTITUDE CONSTRAINTS on RTE LEGS
1/X page for the manual entry format.
FIX ETA [2R]: Estimated time of arrival over holding fix.
RNP [2L,2R]: The Required Navigation Performance (RNP) associated with the holding pattern leg as extracted
from the navigation database.
NOTE: The RNP value will only be displayed if there is an RNP value defined for this leg in the Navigation
Database.
STATUS [5R]:
Hold indicates the status of the holding pattern.
INACTIVE: The holding pattern is part of the active or inactive flight plan but not yet active.
• IN PROGRESS: The aircraft has entered the holding pattern.
• EXITING HOLD: The holding pattern is in progress and the "EXIT HOLD>" prompt has been pressed.
• EXIT ARMED: The aircraft is exiting the holding pattern, the "EXIT HOLD>" prompt and the EXEC key have
been pressed.
• RESUMING HOLD: The exit is armed and the "RESUME HOLD>" prompt has been pressed.
EXIT HOLD [6R]: Active only when the displayed holding pattern status is IN PROGRESS. Pressing this LSK
changes the status to EXITING HOLD and cause the route to be in MOD and the EXEC lamp to illuminate. If the
EXEC key is pressed in the EXITING HOLD state, the holding pattern exit is armed
RESUME HOLD [6R]: Displayed when the holding pattern status is EXIT ARMED. Pressing this LSK changes
the status to RESUMING HOLD and causes the route to be in MOD and the EXEC lamp to illuminate. If the
EXEC key is pressed in the RESUMING HOLD state, the holding pattern is resumed and the exit type is
manual.
CONFIRM [6R]: Confirm the changes made to the inactive route.
(SAVE?): Displayed between the CANCEL/CONFIRM prompts when the inactive route is in modification.
