Cossack,

Yes, I've seen the term used at other airports, such as CYUL (Montreal Trudeau/Dorval).

And don't worry, Staple, the first time I saw it, it surprised me too.

Transport Canada's "Glossary for Pilots and Air Traffic Controllers" defines it this way:

- - shuttle procedure: A manoeuvre involving a descent or a climb in a pattern resembling a holding pattern. Fr: procédure de navette

Just like FFF said.
