No guys, by ILS approach I mean trying a 3 degree slope in a 2 seat trainer bopping along at 60kts on final. Roughly that would be what, a 300ft per minute descent. How would they land at a strip such as YSHR? I'd love to go for a flight with one of these instructors and see how they do this when there is no ILS or visual guidance system installed at the airfield. Their reasoning is they are training people who want to fly for airlines. Got news for you fellas, that little plane ain't an airliner, don't pretend it is.

I've had all weekend and I'm still fired up!!
