If the ILS is available, the correct slope can be determined by pitch/attitude for nominal descent performance and the ILS flown as a flight with unreliable airspeed exercise to, say, cat 1.

We used to do this exercise regularly on endorsement training .. all pitot static instruments failed, radalt, etc so that there was nothing other than attitude and thrust and ILS/locators.

Invariably a great confidence builder.
