Contrary to the above, ATC in Australia does not offer visual approaches. It is up to the pilot to first report visual then, if traffic permits, ATC will clear the aircraft for a visual approach.
Not here!
On the ATIS: "Expect ILS Approach!".
When on Approach: "Report when Visual!".
Bloggs to FO Bloggs: "Tell them to get lost! We're doing the ILS like they said to expect!". Rediculous.
