Apologies for my seemingly flippant reply. DesiPilot and Capn bloggs make 2 valid points which I entirely agree with. In mitigation, though, I was simply responding to the original question which stated “an orbit in present position”. I took ”an orbit” to mean one orbit, rather like Top Bunk described, not the ad hoc multiple circling pattern in abnormal medium to low level wind conditions which have suddenly been added to the scenario.
Of course, if you are asked to orbit in your “present position” and you initially choose the FMGC method of tactical steering, by the time you’ve done your typing you are no longer in that "present position", whereas if you whirl the heading knob, you more or less are. But that's perhaps being a bit pedantic.
