Question IAP Procedure.

Hi All, Happy Holidays

I have a question. What is the proper procedure when intercepting the ILS at 3000ft out side the IAF with a step down to 2100ft depicted from the IAF till FAF, do you just stay all the way at 3000 till glide slope intercept or is the proper procedure to descend to 2100 after IAF till glide slope intercept? At which ALT will allow you to identify a false glide slope? My Captain says we will stay at 3000 till glide slope intercept no sense in destabilizing the approach by descending to 2100 plus you have more ALT to work with if something goes wrong.

You’re thought and comments.

Happy Flying
