In good weather with the conditions for it, there is no excuse for not flying visually. It is legal, economical and safe. If I was on a line check and elected for a radar ILS under conditions which permit a visual I would have some explaining to do. We are paid to fly from A to B in the most economical way possible, if the company asks you why you didn't save a few hundred kilos of fuel, Im afraid "because I don't like visuals" won't really wash.
