So nothing is gained by having the route as a flight plan loaded into the Garmin. When you're *at* a waypoint, it shouldn't make a difference by which means you've identified the waypoint. You're there. That's what you report. As I understand this conversation, it's when you're not at a way point that this discussion rears its head. However, that does beg the question: on an IFR flight, when would you report your position while not at a waypoint? I suppose ATC might ask for some unknown reason (RADAR failure, and shifting into non-RADAR mode, perhaps?), but I've never experienced that myself. - Andrew |
