At Juniper, holding turns are which direction?

At Juniper, holding turns are which direction?

• A. Right
• B. Left
• C. Both
• D. Neither

Answer: (A)

In FAA procedures, the default holding pattern uses right-hand turns (clockwise) around the holding fix unless the chart explicitly states nonstandard left turns. The Juniper holding is drawn as a clockwise racetrack, indicating right turns. So the holding direction at Juniper is right. If a hold were left-handed, the chart would note “nonstandard” or show a counterclockwise pattern. The other options don’t fit because a hold has a defined direction, and Juniper is not designated as a nonstandard (left) hold.
