Often happens in SYD when flying coupled ILS and an A380/B744 gets towed across the far end ofthe runway. LLZ signals bounce around.
No one warns you.
And no one HAs to.
But it would be nice to know before the aircraft starts skewing around and you have to disconnect.
Yep +2
Have had this also happen in SYD, but was the G/S. Aircraft was auto-coupled on a VMC day and started rapidly pitching up towards 10 nose up at a great rate of knots. I saw the G/S pitch up suddenly and the A/P just went for it. The autothrottle couldn't keep up and the airspeed was washing off fairly quickly.
I chickened out and disconnected when the nose hit 5 degrees nose up.
Another crew had it too only they got a airspeed low GPWS alert this time as they were a tad late with the thrust correction but recovered none the same.
And they want to replace us with pilotless pax carrying aircraft.....
