The 'old' military holds are depicted by AIDU thus:



The presence of the sector markings (150/330) implies that even AIDU expected the sector joins to be flown. No wonder everyone disregarded the direction in the FIH. The new holds are shown thus:



and they come with explicit instructions in the notes that e.g. "hold entries are restricted to the 072 radial inbound and via the 286 radial / 10 DME outbound". It is almost like the rules are having to be written on each TAP in order to get the recalcitrant to follow correct procedures!

I think it's clear why so many are confused right now. I think some definitive instruction needs to be issued by CFS, to the tune of "the procedures in the FIH are the law and apply to all TACAN holds", to accompany the revised procedures!
