Landing at MIA from the east but landing on 09 we always captured the glide slope from above unless traffic required us to extend downwind leg. Nobody refused it because basic airmanship made it simple. I retired 5 years ago but I hope basic airmanship hasn't decreased to this level that a flight sim guy can do it. On the B767 I was the copilot doing initial operating experience and my check airman captain didn't arm the approach mode so flew through the gllide slope. He wanted to do that leg so he was confused so I told him to go to idle power, autothrottles off, speed brakes, vertical speed down and intercept from above. It was at the end of a long day and I didn't want to go around for no reason. He was embarassed and said I have been teaching in the sim too long. I didn't care because I was thirsty!
