If you decide to do this, also be aware of the difference that you will likely experience on the approach itself. Things will be happening at a different pace coming down the glideslope with such a higher groundspeed and the ROD will not be what you are used to seeing either while you are scanning your instruments. All of this together could be a factor in being stabilized for the approach to landing. I was shooting some ILSs the other day with a nasty tailwind and it was a little bit of a battle down the chute. I'm glad I wasn't in the weather and having to break out and land!
