True, but if you ask they tell you how find it, radial and distance
from KRH, a bit easier than a landmark. ;-)


So will anyone in the US...

True again, but is easier to give a radial/distance from a VOR than
describe a Landmark


And then German corner is just used aa a short cut, not a reporting
point, if you don't know where it is they can clear you to KRH
