This is a tutorial showing how to enter and fly an NDB Holding Pattern in Microsoft Flight Simulator (FS2020)
The hold procedure is based on a question from the FAA Instrument Rating question database before the NDB questions were removed. This tutorial will help you with hold entry procedures and tracking an NDB using the relative bearing indicator.

Great video. Thanks for doing that man. Greatly appreciated
I have been searching for this content for ages, this is priceless. I would love it if you could explain flying the gate technique + show some wind correction that would be epic!!!!!!!!!
Yes absolutely, I’ll be adding more and more to the NDB series. I’m actually working on an NDB approach video which will be up in a day or two.
@@Taylair that’s fantastic. These videos are such a gap in the UA-cam content available. Learning these procedures in the plane can be so stressful as there’s so much going on. In the simulator you can slow it down and really understand what’s happening. Top dollar stuff, genuinely appreciate it. I am delighted you have more quality content on the way!!!! I will join the list of loyal subscribers.
Great to have you on board! I’m glad you’re finding the content helpful.
Thank you man! great video ;)
Thank you again Taylair for sharing your knowledge - great materials really
Thanks! It’s nice to have a few loyal subscribers already, I appreciate you taking the time to watch the videos as I learn how to edit them 😂
thank you so much...doing this tomorrow in the FNPT II........
No worries, hopefully you have an RMI. It makes life a bit easier!
amazing thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it!
thanks man! i couldn't find any videos using an ndb approach.
No problem! I will do a full approach when I get a chance.
@@Taylair yes please! please do 1 for direct & 1 for parallel entry :)
Amazing tutorial!
Thanks! I wasn't sure if anyone was interested in NDBs anymore, but I'm a bit of a dinosaur...
@@Taylair Hahaha, I totally am. I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to GA. Really working towards my pilot license right now, especially just only turning 14. I'm taking this one Pilot Institute thing, kind of like a ground school.
14... you're making me feel old! Good luck with the studying, if you would like a video on anything specific that you're finding difficult, let me know!
@@Taylair Hahaha, will do. Thanks!
Excellent video..what software do you use to add charts etc to your video?
Thanks, I just edit the charts in later using VSDC!
I have a dumb newbie question that has been bugging me (excuse the pun). On a teardrop or parallel entry, are you not flying across the flight paths of aircraft already in the pattern? Or do you cross the fix at a higher altitude and then descend to the holding altitude as you enter the pattern. If so are these standard altitudes or does it vary according to the airfield? Or is it a standard relative altitude above the holding altitude?
Thanks for your question! Aircraft while holding are separated vertically rather than laterally. No two aircraft are ever at the same altitude at the same time when entering or in a holding pattern. The altitude published is the minimum holding altitude. Aircraft will be stacked up in the hold with at least 1000ft vertical separation and will commence the approach when they reach the bottom of the stack. When you are assigned a holding altitude you will usually be at the top of the pile and will be descended by ATC as aircraft leave the hold from the bottom and commence the procedure.
@@Taylair thank you. So just to be clear. When the aircraft at the bottom of the stack is cleared to land, the others are then cleared to descend by the amount of separation (1000 ft minimum)? I assume they are cleared consecutively, starting with the lowest (after the one cleared to land)? Or are they cleared simultaneously?
They wouldn’t be cleared to land at this point, but cleared to proceed beyond the hold into the subsequent procedure. The aircraft would then be descended one by one from the bottom. I’m sure an air traffic controller could give you more detailed information but all it is for us is an organized way of wasting time until the congestion or weather clears up.
@@Taylair Thank you for clarifying.
My IR checkride in Russia will be in two days and NDB is still the main radio navaid here (because GNSS of course) I don’t like NDB 😂
Good luck!
