This is interesting, and I wonder just how much a pilot flying "VFR" is legally supposed to know about VRPs.
I always navigate fully IFR, e.g. EGxx MAY ALKIN LAM BPK BKY EGxx. The route is pre-planned on the ground, as it should be.
If taking to e.g. Thames Radar, if I tell them "next waypoint is BPK" they just say "G-xxxx, roger" and they are happy.
If talking to some lower form of service however, I might be asked to report at Sevenoaks. Now I have to look at the chart, or the GPS map, to see where Sevenoaks actually is.
Moreover, when reading e.g. Pooleys, some big airports give a list of VRPs at which VFR pilots are supposed to report. I don't have it handy but I think Cardiff was one. I phoned them up and asked whether I really need to know all that, why can't I just come straight in and use the ILS; they made it clear that would be perfectly fine.
Is a pilot on a "VFR" flight supposed to know where any feature on the ground is (other than, obviously, restricted areas etc and the destination airfield) or is he entitled to say he is navigating IFR? One way around this is to fly "IFR", I suppose... The other one is to not talk to anyone and just maintain a listening watch - best way if the service in the area cannot actually offer a useful service (e.g. London Info)
