outboundCourseType CodeCourseType The type of outbound course to be observed (for example, true track, magnetic track, heading, VOR radial, true bearing, magnetic bearing) on which holding is based.  
inboundCourse ValBearingType The radial, course or bearing of the inbound leg as it pertains to a holding pattern.  
turnDirection CodeDirectionTurnType An indicator of the turn direction (such as left, right or either) in an aerial manoeuvre performed by aircraft during holding operations.  
upperLimit ValDistanceVerticalType The maximum vertical distance (measured from a specified reference) allowed for all aircraft categories, at all defined speeds, operating in a holding pattern.  
upperLimitReference CodeVerticalReferenceType The reference surface (Mean Sea Level, Ground, standard pressure, etc.) used for determining the value of the upper limit of a holding pattern.  
lowerLimit ValDistanceVerticalType The minimum vertical distance (measured from a specified reference) allowed for all aircraft categories, at all defined speeds, operating in a holding pattern.  
lowerLimitReference CodeVerticalReferenceType The reference surface (Mean Sea Level, Ground, standard pressure, etc.) used for determining the value of the lower limit of a holding pattern.  
speedLimit ValSpeedType Restricted speed for containment in a smaller pattern during holding operations.  
instruction TextInstructionType Operational instructions that must be observed when flying the holding pattern.
