In my opinion the claim of faulty nav instruments is not a runner.

One of the most basic checks you carry out while flying a ILS approach is DME distance compared to the height at that distance on the plate. eg 3 times profile, at 10 miles = 3000ft. As for wake tubulence ATC will provide safe seperation when on the ILS. Why was his phone even turned on?.
