Thank you for your answer! I now realize that if I would just activated the procedure turn when I was inbound off the 042 radial I would have been instrument rated... The sad part is that I could have just told my check instructor that I was starting the time at wings level... Unfortunately, he told me that the way I was executing the hold was satisfactory, but on top of everything else I was doing wrong, in the process of trying to figure out how I could tell I was abeam the fix while turning in the hold I was timing my outbound to one minute, when in reality we had a decent headwind so the inbound was consistently shorter then one minute.... Anyways, I appreciate your input, hope that I will be instrument rated soon, because I know I am qualified!
