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...


Bertie

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


Not so easy to find if you are flying sans radio, though.


Bertie


If you fly sans radio you do not need English, and is only used for IFR
flying (as a short cut given by ATC), usually done with radio in Europe.
