Hey guys, any idea of the proper wing config in the port holding pattern during Case 1? Do we sweep them back to 68 and trim up. I know we have 68 set for the break, but are we at 68 for entire holding pattern?

I don’t know the official answer, but I would think it would be whatever is most fuel efficient? High aspect ratio wings forward?

Ok, but you are flying formation in the pattern and then you sweep the wings back after commence. And everyone sweeps back while trimming and staying in formation while commencing?

 

I would think wings forward by yourself in Case 3 marshall stack but not sure about Case 1.

I was thinking marshaling at something like 250 knots so sweep forward or auto? Looking forward to an experienced answer!

Auto until you accelerate above 300 for the break.

 

You need to conserve fuel while in holding, so wings auto and ~10 units AOA.
