I was taught, and it was reinforced by the DE, to use distance and
direction over waypoints.

If you think about it, it's not difficult to do, as the distance from the
named point to the airport is usually right on the plate.


But unless you state that your position was determined by GPS other pilots
cannot be confident of the accuracy of your report.
