Airbubba;

I am by no means a believer and accepter of FR24 data for the purposes of accurate, reliable investigative processes such as we see here and in other events. I've taken a look at the linked ADS-B page, 2nd image:



...and I'm wondering, if the airplane was actually on the ILS, why does ADS-B data show it so high - or is FR24 data not accurate in altitude?

In any case, I remain unconvinced that it's a useful tool for finding out what happened and I suspect those that do actual investigative work including the interpretation of the recorders, will concur.
