3.3 Holding Pattern Criteria 

3.3.1 Unless otherwise specified, holding procedures are based on the following criteria: 

Indicated Airspeed

3.3.2 Holding patterns must be entered and flown at or below the indicated airspeeds in Tables ENR 1.5-2 and ENR 1.5-3.

3.3.3 Notwithstanding the previous paragraph:

• (a) Where the holding pattern speed for a particular instrument approach differs from that listed in Table ENR 1.5-2 or Table ENR 1.5-3, it will be clearly annotated on the chart.
• (c) Aircraft unable to comply with the speed restrictions listed in Table ENR 1.5-2 or Table ENR 1.5-3 are to advise ATC and request clearance for holding at an acceptable speed. This may result in an ATC requirement for an increase in the minimum holding altitude.

3.4 Entry Procedures 

3.4.1 Entry into a holding pattern must be according to heading in relation to the three entry sectors shown in Figure ENR 1.5-2, recognising a zone of flexibility of 5° on either side of sector boundaries. In the case of holding on a VOR/DME fix the entry track is limited to either the VOR radial or DME arc.
