2.0

October 7, 2018

This update implements a new and sophisticated patent-pending algorithm developed by a 51-year Aerospace Industry veteran that allows the pilot will roll out precisely onto the inbound leg and fly it for exactly for 1-minute, or other user-defined inbound leg time or distance. This new version automatically calculates ground track, wind correction angle, headings, and required timings, given the assigned fix, your TAS, and virtually any wind direction and velocity up to 99.99% of TAS. We've also included a built-in timer, an onboard user guide, and the seminal paper: "A Treatise on the Holding Pattern: Expelling the Myths and Misconceptions of Timing and Wind Correction."

Reviews of Holding Pattern Computer

  • Starting IFR now.

    I’ll fill this in more once I’ve used the app, for now I’ll use it to ask a question: why no Apple Watch app/watch face. Holding seems like the perfect time for a huge wrist mounted timer button that actually knows what’s next!
  • Best holding app hands down!

    This app was worth the money. It really helped me visualize the hold & being able to check my work by using this app was a game changer. It made learning holds during my IFR training a lot easier. I highly recommend!

    Developer Response

    Glad you liked the holding pattern computer. In the next few days we will be releasing version 2.1 of the computer. The added features are: (1) EFC time capability. The Pilot inputs the EFC time and the computer will calculate a final holding pattern track that will bring the aircraft over the holding fix at the EFC time. (2) Heading indicator will rotate at the aircraft rate of turn, with a digital readout of the aircraft heading. (3) Wind direction barb on the heading indicator (4) Answer page now can show information on the aircraft ground speed and along track angle for the straight legs, and time for each of the turning segments. Also time to go in each of the legs, as well as time to the fix and time remaining to EFC. There are a few other features in this version that may interest you. Would greatly appreciate any feedback after using the new version. Best regards Les Glatt
  • Pretty good

    I like this app it’s easy topi use and has helped me learn how to fly holding patterns. It needs to be cheaper. This app is only worth 4 or 5 dollars. But oh well I’d rather pay a few extra dollars here than fail a check ride.

    I would really like the heading indicator to point up. As you would see it in the airplane. This app only has north up and I have to turn my device to point it the right way. Please add this feature.
