The accident at Guam was a clear case of this, and it’s amazing how it’s always a chain of events, it was a Non Precision approach in the way of a VOR/DME as opposed the NDB as the Glide Slope was inop on the ILS, but still had a GS signal which was erroneous, which they should have ignored instantly because if the GS is inop then any signal you get should be treated as erroneous. Then comes the VOR/DME approach, all the relevant info should have been in front of them to conduct this approach, why did they bust the step down fixes? fatigue? experience? stress? or all 3? shows how important these issues are, I can’t wait to do my MCC course in 10 days time, should be very enlightening.
