Holding WHISKEY arrival?

Holding WHISKEY arrival?

• A. Hold at FOG
• B. Hold at ECHO
• C. Hold at WHISKEY
• D. Hold at JUNIPER

Answer: (C)

Holding at the WHISKEY fix is the correct choice. In a named arrival like the WHISKEY arrival, the published holding pattern is centered on the fix that shares that name. The arrival uses that point to space and align aircraft for the approach, so you enter and hold at WHISKEY as the published procedure directs. The other fixes listed are different waypoints and are not the designated holding point for this arrival, so holding at them would not follow the published procedure.
