VH-XXX:
Perhaps... but....
Here is a classic example of why a radial is a bad idea.... McGrath50 has just turned it around (be it by accident or just for the purposes of the conversation) and used the term "on the 260 bearing." Is the high speed PC9 on a 260 bearing, heading west, or is he inbound on the 260 radial?
A "high speed PC9" would not make such a ridiculous call. He/she would say "inbound on the 260 RADIAL". It's not rocket science. If the airport had an NDB instead, he/she would say "inbound on the 260 BEARING".
A radial is ONLY applicable to a VOR. Another common, incorrect use of phraseology.
