Feature Article: Holding Patterns IFR
The shape of the
holding pattern was based upon a requirement that older gyro
instruments be allowed to settle down in a turn. The one minute
straight legs gave the gyros the time to settle down before beginning
another turn. A holding pattern of continuous turns would cause
precession and unreliable indications.
