Narrative:
This problem was discovered while training in an air carrier airlines flight simulator using an md-88 FMS. The published holding pattern at bushe NDB off the missed approach of the VOR DME runway 17 ags, GA (apr/xx/91 13-1) depicts l-hand turns. This is inconsistent with all other published patterns over bushe which depict r-hand turns. Plate 13-1 should be revised accordingly!
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: RPTR BELIEVES THAT AN INST APCH CHART HOLDING PATTERN SHOULD BE CHANGED TO COINCIDE WITH THE OTHER HOLDING PATTERN DIRECTION OF TURNS FOR THE ARPT.
Narrative: THIS PROB WAS DISCOVERED WHILE TRAINING IN AN ACR AIRLINES FLT SIMULATOR USING AN MD-88 FMS. THE PUBLISHED HOLDING PATTERN AT BUSHE NDB OFF THE MISSED APCH OF THE VOR DME RWY 17 AGS, GA (APR/XX/91 13-1) DEPICTS L-HAND TURNS. THIS IS INCONSISTENT WITH ALL OTHER PUBLISHED PATTERNS OVER BUSHE WHICH DEPICT R-HAND TURNS. PLATE 13-1 SHOULD BE REVISED ACCORDINGLY!
