Holding arrival at Whiskey specifies holding at which point?

Holding arrival at Whiskey specifies holding at which point?

• A. Hold at Fog
• B. Hold at Whiskey
• C. Hold at Echo
• D. Hold at Juniper

Answer: (B)

Holding arrival at Whiskey means the hold is located at the Whiskey fix. When an arrival instruction specifies holding at a named fix, that fix is the point where you must enter and remain in the published holding pattern to sequence for the approach. So you would fly to Whiskey and enter the hold there, following the published pattern (direction and leg length are defined for that fix). The other fixes listed—Fog, Echo, Juniper—are separate waypoints, not the designated hold point in this instruction.
