And correct me if I'm wrong, but this was as a result of a few airlines that you probably wouldn't choose to travel on as an average or above average intelligence human being, ignoring the glideslope fluctuation issues on 07R in HKG, not disconnecting to fly manually, but preferring to fly the jet into the sea about 3 miles short of the runway if she wanted to...

You can't teach stupid.

Incident: Cathay Pacific B773 at Hong Kong on Mar 31st 2020, cleared for runway 07L crossed 07R and went around (http://avherald.com/h?article=4d55d3b1&opt=0)

This one was heading for the hills at one stage, not sure how that happened as it was supposed to be on 07L, perhaps a bad LOC signal, although that would be unlikely on 07L. Probably not related to the above though as no mention of GS exceedence.

Maybe they had 07R tuned instead of 07L...just speculating though
