This particular 172 normally cruised at 120 mph indicatedairspeed, but with the ice it would barely do 90 mph and that required full throttle! Just north of Jefferson City, the Kansas City Center controller cleared us to the Jeff City VOR, which was on the airport, to hold at 4,000 feet. What had happened?
IFR operations require an operable VOR or TACAN receiver or a suitable RNAV system. Class B Speed Limitations Aircraft flying within the Class B airspace may fly at an indicatedairspeed of up to 250 knots.
Because the size of the holding pattern is directly proportional to the speed of the aircraft, maximum holding speeds in knots indicatedairspeed (KIAS) have been designated for specific altitude ranges. Charted holding procedure on the low altitude enroute chart with 5 mile legs specified.

We were assigned a slightly ridiculous alteration to the route I filed: MANCH T316 LAMMS T608 ROC that had us flying past Sodus to the Rochester VOR before setting up for Sodus. Once on with Syracuse, I decided to rectify the inefficient routing at the end of my instrument clearance and requested direct to Sodus from the Syracuse VOR.
