Now that the mode-S derived tracks are available, did more people notice that the intercept of the localizer happened after passing the Final Approach Fix? The FAF is 6.2 nm from the threshold, but the intercept happened at approx. 5 nm. And it seems they were some 300 feet high on the glideslope at that point. And still in the clouds.
