Establisht on what?
When approaching final in UK the controllers often give us, turn (left,right) call me establisht. Establisht on what? I can hear a lot of pilots getting confused. I want to hear "call me establisht on ILS rwy" like in the rest of the world.

"Cleared for an ILS approach rwy 14, report established on the ILS rwy 14", sounds like overcontrol. I work in "the rest of the world" and never use this item, as normaly it is compulsory for pilots to report "established on the LLZ" and "fully established on the ILS".

There are two permissible phrases used in the UK for radar vectoring to an ILS.
"Call-sign turn left/right heading xxx, report established on the localiser ( runway ...)"
or
"Call-sign turn right/left heading xxx closing the localiser from the right/left report established.
When the aircraft reports established on the localiser he will then be cleared to descend on the ILS.
If a controller omits reference to the localiser then this is wrong and can obviously lead to confusion.

Maybe i should clerify this a little.In UK we often get "aircraft turn left/right heading xxx cleared ILS rwy 28 call me established" The danger is arming the appr mode and wrongly follow the glide. I think the clearens should be "aircraft turn left/right heading xxx call me established LOC 28" Then "cleared ILS approach 28" when established.or even better after turn "cleared approach ILS 28" Is this uniqe for UK or is it just me getting confused.

Fizze, I'm sorry but I have to disagree. I also fly in the U.K and have never heard "cleared to intercept ILS **". I have however heard "cleared to intercept the Localiser report established" many times, in fact everyday.
Generally you are cleared for the ILS approach in Europe.
