It could be that many FMC's take you back to the entry hold point, which is then used as the exit hold point.. .Depending on where the aircraft is in the hold will determine if it does a full hold or turns straight towards the holding reference.. .Just a thought, but saying something along the lines of 'heading now xxx' should do the job. On Mr Boeings finest, this should prompt the driver to do it with 'Hdg select', bypassing the FMC's desire to exit via the reference point.. ........ .ooops crossed with groggs who posted a far more eloquent explanation
