    2nd pilot broadcasts on CTAF airplane locations referencing distance & direction from airport (ex: 5 mi west inbound Rwy12 low approach).

    Airport & plate referenced is KLVN VOR 12.

    I looked in the AIM for IFR vs. VFR CTAF lingo but was unable to locate best practice guidance. Thank you for your help.
    There is guidance in the AIM for this exact subject, para 4-1-9 (g)(4).

    There is also an Advisory Circular pertinent to this subject, https://www.faa.gov/documentlibrary/.../ac_90-66b.pdf
