We don't set 0s at my shop either. We set TDZE (rounded up to nearest hundred so 48' we'd set 100) at GS capture for an ILS or on an LNAV/VNAV we can set TDZE when cleared the approach and on a published segment (and in VNAV). Outside of that the lowest we can set is FAF altitude (again if in VNAV). We set MA altitude at our 1000' foot call.

What in the world is going on? Quick question for 737 guys. Why every time I’m in the Jumpseat do you guys select zero on the altitude selector before starting down on the ils before you cross your missed approach altitude? If it’s just the way Boeings are made what are you guys doing different then everyone else in the world since this isn’t happening to any other carrier.
