During My initial issue 2 years ago I also called waypoints in my CTAF calls the ATO reckons he was extremely close to failing me. I was taught this way and honestly thought is was the norm!! Now being in the industry for a couple of years I know how confusing it can be for the VFR guys. I think the problem originates in training, with instructors own bad habits rubbing off on the students.

This is just my opinion of course maybe there are a few pilots who are just getting lazy. I was taught very early in my training that you can tell a professional pilot by the way he conducts his radio calls !!

What are people’s thoughts is this problem originating from training or are pilots becoming lazy???
