Could well have been, Dozy. Can't be bothered checking up on yet another one of your claims. Besides, totally irrelevant to the current disucssion.
The perils of backing up the visual with the ILS.
Seen that a few times... Load ILS on a Visual, PF briefs "we'll follow the ILS..." Capn Bloggs says "but we won't be following the ILS Missed Approach procedure now, will we?" which requires a turn shortly after the MAPt. FO Bloggs says "Err, no, I guess not...".
