Does the fluctuation, in anyone's opinion, explain what we see on the profile as recorded on FR24? I experienced some G/S fluctuations at SVO for the very same reason of GP antenna shielding, but the overall effect was very different.

The second approach, just starting the final descent




Same position but on the first approach. Already well below profile, -2000 fpm and keeps descending



First approach, 5 miles out: 400 ft AFE and still -2000 fpm



And the correction is … creepy.
