Despite clearly being well above ILS glide-path when in the hold, these guys could surely have tuned in to get a valid localiser signal. Despite the shocking decision on the plan v range issue, it...

I don't dispute that is indeed what was stated, but the guys in the front had a duty to monitor their 777's performance. They got way too slow and didn't notice it = an error by the pilots! Great...
