Garmin G1000 IFR - Manual Holding

Mossy and Peter failed their IFR checkride.

This is really good, and helpful that you repeated the hold a couple of times.

Is it sad that I remembered “DUMB ASSSS…published” more than anything lol. Thanks for the great video guys!

This is a good tutorial but a more check ride / real scenario would be to hold at a random DME point along an airway. E.g "Cessna 1234A, hold NE of the 15 DME ABC VOR R-240." Can you set this up on a non-published waypoint? Examiners frequently use these on check rides to move things along just as instructors do in training.

I have seen this echoed in comments across their videos: they have outstanding presentations of real-world situations, blending "by the book" with tips from highly experience pilots. A terrific combination. It's really a bummer they haven't produced new material in a while now. Staying subscribed, you never know 🙂

Why wouldn't you just keep it in HDG Mode? Seems like unnecessary extra work to change from NAV and HDG mode...

There was a hidden message in this vid, the dumbb point. The dumbb as published....but he drug out the as as in ass for relying on computer to do it 😂😂😂 but for good reason

Which G1000 trainer is it?

Why not go into the flightplan page select the waypoint and select hold over fix and let it do it for you?

did this G1000 have some synthetic vision or is that just because this is simulated view?

Good choice of destination for old guy like me: dumb

Perfect explanation! Thank you so much!

Hold at DummAss..... lmao

thank you! very well explained.

Gotta be honest. I've been flying for years and this is the best explanation of manual holding with the Garmin system I've ever seen. Thanks!

Why not just build the hold for the autopilot? Is that only a G1000 NXi thing?

You guys are the best at these tips.

turning direct onto an oubtound leg? must be different in the US, never heard of that before.

Excellent presentation, clear, concise and understandable. Great graphics. Helps a poor VFR pilot!

When you make the turn at the gate (the turn to inbound), the distance is indeed 7NM, but that's 7NM from the fix DUMBB, not the length of the leg flown. That's why you didn't roll out of the turn properly and had to edit that part.

The fix couldn't have been more fitting for us viewers.

Hold at DUMBB ASS?

Thanks so much ! Very helpful video.

I have been using a similar method with my autopilot, but I will use TRK mode on the outbound leg by visually setting the track line parallel to the inbound leg - this gives me wind correction to keep me from drifting further out from the inbound leg or, more importantly, getting too close to the inbound leg and potentially overshooting the inbound and getting on the non-hold side. Is there any reason not to do it that way? Also, if the wind correction (difference between HDG and TRK) indicates a wind that is pushing towards the inbound leg, I will bias the track line away from the parallel of the inbound because a tailwind while turning back inbound can also force me across to the non-hold side.

Thanks—helpful video! Just one comment: I’ve never thought using the same letter for a mnemonic, especially with so many steps, was pedagogically wise. I was taught 5 T’s, and could never remember which T comes when. And now I have to add another T? That’s nuts, especially, as it’s pointed out in the video, how seldom we have to hold. It’s similar to the 3 G’s for engine failure in flight—when it really happens, are you really gonna remember which G to do first? Just think of all the mnemonics/acronyms we have to use, like CRAFT or CTAF or IMSAFE. What if they were all the same letter? Flight schools should get rid of all those T’s, use some imagination, and come up with something else.

Great refresher. Thanks for making this video.

wooow! I have no words to express my gratitude. thanks very much! btw, what software do you use for training?

Thanks Homies!

I’m studying for my instrument right now and this video has really helped me with my holding patterns. I use this same technique on my procedure turns as well

why can't they just add a hold option on garmin just like on the airbus. won't it make life easier for everyone rather than all this hassle? just push the button and enter a unpublished hold. simple.

Why is the ribbon with HDG/AP etc. in green mode if the HSI/CDI is in GPS mode?

hold at dumbass published.

Technology is great, however it makes a pilot complacent. Perhaps, I am old fashioned, but I prefer to the hold manually. Crazy I know. That's, why we got our instrument ratings ! I remember doing my instrument check ride in a 150 with 1 one VOR. Examiner, was a very tough Korean fighter pilot. Never forget it, Colonel Bass asked : Khavari, can you do this with one VOR? Which I promptly said: yes, Sir ! He said, ok, it's your money ! That was back in the 70s. He had already busted me on my commercial once. I was fortunate to get my ticket on that hot, humid Tulsa, Oklahoma day !

Mike K how is it going after a year and applying for the soda?

So it’s normal to bank at 30 degrees in IMC?

Are there Rocket Bunny kits for Cessnas now?

Hold at dumb ass published! XD :P

This is what I had the most trouble with going for my PPL. I don't know if it's an FAA thing or just my CFP, but I had to hold the pattern within +/- 100 ft altitude and within the time allowed for each leg. I failed the first time. It required four more hours of practice before I got it down.

The CDI needle clearly overshot while turning inbound..the aircraft still had 55-50 degrees more to turn. you edited that part n then showed a proper inbound intercepted leg. clever.

Interesting. Just started transitioning from a steam gauge 172N to a 172S with the Garmin 1000. Not yet using the auto-pilot so just hand flying for now.
Doing prep for a "SODA" after losing my left leg from complications from knee replacement surgery.
Thanks for posting.
