When instructed to hold at Igor, what road do you parallel?

• A. Hwy 89
• B. Langley Road
• C. No Man's Land Road
• D. Pond Road

Answer: (A)

When you’re asked to hold at a fix, you fly a racetrack pattern around that point, with the outbound leg oriented in a specific way to help you stay oriented. In this scenario, the hold at Igor is defined so that the outbound leg runs parallel to a nearby road. That means you depart Igor on a track that keeps you moving alongside Highway 89, making it easy to recognize your position relative to the road as you alternate between outbound and inbound legs. The other roads listed aren’t aligned with the hold’s outbound segment, so Highway 89 is the road you parallel.
