Fathom an ILS will 'fly you into the ground with the needles centred' too -it's called auto land

Honestly, between the FMC, FD, FMA and RADALT it's really not rocket science.

Clark y agree completely - that doesn't make it any less a training and standards issue.

What in that report gives anyone the impression that THAT crew on THAT day would have done better self positioning for the ILS?
