HOLD AT
When the HOLD function key is pushed and no holding pattern exists in the route, the LEGS page shows prompts to enter the holding fix. Enter the holding fix to show the RTE HOLD page.

HOLD AT Present Position (PPOS)
Selects the airplane present position as the holding fix. Only displayed during flight when not in a holding pattern.
Modified Route Hold Status
MOD indicates that the holding fix has not been executed.
Execution changes the page title to RTE HOLD (ACT RTE HOLD if holding at PPOS).
FIX
Displays waypoint identifier of the holding fix.
Entry is propagated either automatically from the database, or from a manual entry on the HOLD AT page.
If PPOS was selected on the HOLD AT page, then the FMC assigns PPOS as the fix identifier.
Quadrant/Radial (QUAD/RADIAL)
Displays holding pattern quadrant and radial.
Entry is propagated either automatically from the database, or from a manual entry
on the HOLD AT page.
YA809, YD651 - YK104
(SB changes YA613 - YA687, YC153 - YC413)
The default holding pattern inbound course and turn direction are in small font.
Crew entered or holding patterns extracted from the database are in large font.
Valid entry is XXX (radial) or XX/XXX (quadrant/radial). Valid quadrant entry is

For a flight crew–entered holding pattern, if no entry is made, the FMC assumes
right turns.
LEG TIME
Displays holding pattern leg time.
Valid entry is XXX.X. Manual entry has priority.
If no entry is made, the FMC assumes the standard times of 1.0 minute at or below
14,000 feet and 1.5 minutes above 14,000 feet.
