Holding Pattern Trainer
--------------------------Watch the video Trailer:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1fFtGIoq9M--------------------------
Is the following scenario familiar? You receive a holding clearance from ATC, and only have a couple of minutes, sometimes only a few seconds, to choose the correct entry. By the time you've figured out what's going on, you've already passed the holding fix and don't know what to do next.
If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Confusion during holding entries happens to practically almost every new instrument student. Even instrument-rated pilots occasionally have the same problem — when they don't get enough practice.
Holding Trainer solves this problem and as a result, cuts the time you have to spend on expensive flight and ground lessons. With Holding Trainer, you can practice on your own time and convenience, so that choosing the best holding entry in the air becomes a breeze.
Features:
-Entry Trainer
- Drills you on choosing the best holding entry. Practice until choosing holding entries becomes second nature and impress your flight instructor with your skills.
-Holding calculator. Solve and visualize any holding scenario by entering your current bearing to the fix and a outbound or inbound holding radial.
-Holding tutorial
- learn how to choose the best holding entry quickly and easily.
Holding Trainer for iOS is a complete rewrite based on my popular Flash-based desktop Holding Trainer app available on pilotscafe.com.
***Don't get stuck next time you receive a holding pattern clearance!***----------------------------------For only a fraction of the cost of one ground lesson with your flight instructor, you can practice this important instrument skill at your own pace and save hundreds of Dollars on figuring out holding entries in the air.
This is a great tool for anyone training towards their instrument checkride, CFII, proficiency check, or simply trying to improve their holding patterns.----------------------------------

You will save tons of money with this App...!!! You can perfect you ability to hold on VOR/NDB's before you step in a plane or simulator with your instructor...
Awesome! Exactly what I needed to get rid of my fear of figuring hold entries. Just buy the dang thing.
Helped me with visualizing holds on the ground before take off. Allows the user to mess around with holding procedures types if entries.
App never downloaded after I paid for it. Kept getting a message that said app will download soon but never did.
You will save a ton of money mastering this app before showing up for flight instruction..I'm sorry to say, but I think this app is terribly under priced...
Superb pattern visualization drill. Also superb tutorial and training support utilities.
I love it
Very usefully
This is a good hold training app. Some of the switches are a bit finicky. I'd like to see it work in portrait mode which is how I use my tablet in the airplane. I could then switch over to use the hold calculator for those brain fart moments, but I can't since it is landscape only.
Stupid. 5 bucks for someone just to quiz me in entry procedures. That was a waste
Great app for training. Would like to see it work in portrait mode and would be nice if it could use the internal compass and show real-time information too
Great practice tool. This app really helped me with my instrument rating!
Does exactly what it says and does it very well.
Im an instrument rated pilot and found this software perfect, 100% recommended
Pretty good tool. Good refresher.
Helped me learn for an IFR ground school class.
It does what is told
Worth every penny. I read the faa stuff, tried lots of youtube tutorials, practice tests, sportys course, and this is the only method that nailed it down for me. Gamifying tough visualization problems is the fastest way to master them. Great job dev. 👍
