Whatever the facts are behind this incident, take the opportunity to remember the many previous pit falls and errors during practice Cat 3 approach and landings.
Check that the ILS protected zone is free, which may include departing traffic ahead for LOC disturbances. This also applies to over flying aircraft (N.B. MD 80 Gatwick incident).
Do not play with the automatics, if they are in and working properly leave them in. If you wish to push and pull on the column then ‘pop’ the autos out!
