Cactusbusdrvr:--- fair enough I understand the dive bomb high speed approach into a dark hole over water approach to SFO is quite challenging but maybe now you'll take the bold airmanship step of manually tuning the 28R ILS and selecting the LS push button on. It's the simple things that will save the day and add another layer of safety for just these scenarios.

It might save your ass too from an embarrassing stuff up to something a whole lot worse.

Live and learn.

Oh and "it's works fine that way all the time". Ahhhhhhh, it would seem that is not the case.

AC have dodged a bullet and in doing so have highlighted a problem that needs addressing.
