Well, to be fair, that's different than you first described it. You
failed
your checkride because you misidentified a waypoint. Not "because [you]
used a private field as a waypoint".
Hmm. I don't see it quite this way. He called the waypoint the wrong
thing, but that's not a lot different than the "onion fields" north of CDW
that might in fact be tomatoe, grapes, or who knows what else.
He should have called it "road across street from farm with transient
runway", I suppose, but if he did spot the road, does it matter what it was
called?
