Long day, tired. I want all the help I can get. ILS, lots of concrete. Hit the easy button. 13 saved them what, a minute? Doesn't seem worth it now.
It's a job, not an adventure.
yeah, but is there at least a GPS approach to back it up?
if there’s a GPS Approach, then it should be fine.
honest question I don’t know the 737 since I fly an Airbus. Does the 737 capture the pseudo glideslope on a GPS approach??? is a GPS approach really that difficult on a 737?
The pilot should’ve been thinking to themselves. Why am I full scale deflection low on this GPS approach???
