I accept that there is LCY to consider. However if vectors are tight as yesterday's was, then 'call localiser established' is going to end in tears ...As we fight to get that call in ....whilst the glide comes and goes...
After reading that I think that maybe wasn't me? I never use the phrase "call localiser established". Just "turn right/left HDG xxx, establish localiser RWY"
Tend to use the phrase establish localiser RWY without mention to descend on glidepath if I reckon the heading i am issuing will be inside 13nm or if there's a more important transmission to make and need a quick readback.
But you also mention that there was an accent change in the middle of the transmissions...
