Reading the thread about the DME Holding Fix got me thinking again about holds. The last time I did a hold was during an IPC, and have yet to do one while flying professionally. Now granted, I haven't necessarily racked up a lot of hours yet, but the big joke among airline friends of mine is "what's a hold??" (usually stated during the 6 month checkout sim ride)
So I dont think its a wrong assumption to make that most people who fly for a living (atleast the non-single engine stuff) get issued holds very often.
When was the last time YOU got given a holding instruction? Where were you, and why did you have to hold? And we're not talking about bladders here gentleman.
