CHAPTER SEVEN T-6B PRIMARY INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION<br />
North) correction to the outbound heading is required, making the outbound heading 075°.<br />
Apply the triple-drift correction immediately after rolling out on the outbound leg of the<br />
Correction Orbit, but do not begin the triple-drift timing until passing abeam the holding fix.<br />
Maintain the triple-drift correction for one minute once you commence timing on the outbound<br />
leg (or until the expiration of outbound timing, whichever occurs first). After one minute of<br />
triple-drift correction, fly a single-drift heading to compensate for wind (this also applies to<br />
VOR/DME and GPS holding).<br />

7. Confirm expected further clearance (EFC) time.<br />
- Confirm EFC time with approach control at least five minutes prior to the EFC.<br />
Receipt of EFC is not a clearance to commence approach at that time unless you have<br />
lost communications with ATC.<br />
8. Cleared out of holding.<br />
a. It is very important to listen to the approach clearance once established in holding. If<br />
established in a published holding pattern and subsequently cleared for the Holding<br />
Pattern Approach, commence the approach from within the holding pattern and<br />
descend to the IAF altitude at pilot’s discretion. If established in a holding pattern<br />
and subsequently cleared for an approach other than a Holding Pattern Approach,<br />
maintain last assigned altitude or the published minimum holding altitude, whichever<br />
is lower, until established on a segment of the approach.<br />
b. Airspeed when departing holding is at pilot’s discretion. This decision should be<br />
based on your intentions departing holding (continue enroute or commence an<br />
approach) and the aircraft position in relation to the instrument approach (if<br />
conducting an approach from holding).
