Night LOC/DME approach with definite terrain considerations after passing the minimum altitude. F/O wanted 1200 fpm to follows PAPI false fly down signal. Trouble was, the fog reflected the white lights so much that they disguised the red lights. Lucky there weren't two pilots who believe everything they see. The point is that any time you follow electronic or visual guidance, other parameters must fit the circumstances.
