Similar to a procedure turn?

Not only is it similar to a procedure turn, it IS a procedure turn.


This depends on how much you want to play with words.

My intent wasn't to play with words. In real life, I'm just a software
geek. I'm thinking that the "hold in lieu of procedure turn" is a
subclass of "procedure turn", therefore it IS a procedure turn (or
written more conventionally in computer-science-geeky terms, is-a PT).

But, this may be one of those cases where what's correct in techno-speak
is probably misleading in plain English. I certainly agree with you
that when most people say "procedure turn", they're probably thinking of
the 45-180 style most of us learned in instrument training.
