There is a definite difference in the airspace protected for a holding

couldn't be on the same side as the PT, though, since the PT eats up much
more airspace.


Not in this case. This is one of those little tiny 5-mile PT areas, which they
can design into a CAT A only IAP

Interesting. I have an old copy of FAAO 7130.3 and couldn't find a word
about five mile holding patterns, so I was kind of transmitting in the blind
(:-). What template is used?

Not a 5-mile hold; rather a 5-mile procedure turn. TERPs 234b:

"b. Area. The PT areas are depicted in Figure 5. The normal PT distance is 10
miles. See table 1A. **Decrease this distance to 5 miles where only CAT A
aircraft or helicopters are to be operating**, and increase to 15 miles to
accommodate operational requirement, or as specified in paragraph 234d. No
extension of the PT is permitted without a FAF. When a PT is authorized for use
by approach CAT E aircraft, use a 15-mile PT distance."

Well, I managed to screw that up...looking at a holding pattern book to find
PT airspace. Sheesh!!
