great thanks for that - although on the reference guide I only see departure clearnace on page 14! BUt you ahve answered the question anyhopw - thanks so much
Dave That's what the Official 413 says, and is be correct, I thought that if perigrineh looked at the supplement it might help him. CAP 413 is always the reference for the UK at least! TTWTDI

Reason: typos
It's usually 'Report glidepath descending' after you've given them cockpit checks complete and localiser established. I've never heard 'Descend on ILS' before.
Hi Peregrineh when I done my imc I got the oxford IFR, RT cd rom & it was excellent. This really helped me & made it easy learning as it had each section of flight, departure, enroute & each type of approach, SRA, NDB,DME ect with the full RT. Along with cap 413 you can't go wrong.
With respect, why are you not aware of CAP413 (UK only, I hasten to add)? That and the link supplied by bookworm are the references; I regret that there is much wrong information above.
Very few pilots have read CAP413. Why? Because there are hundreds of pages of Zzzzzzzzz......
And those of us who work with protocol definitions every day can be immensely frustrated that this document seeks to be the definition of a protocol ... but never actually defines it!
If you try to teach something by example that's fair enough, provided you can pull the real definition off the shelf to resolve any issues, but you can't define a protocol by example.

If you think that's bad, try the standard phrases in CAP493 App E. The sad thing is, it really does matter how these things are used and interpreted, and no one seems to have come up with an unambiguous reference.
