The whole reason to tinme the ILS is in case of GS failure, you can still locate the MAP. An immediate climb is safe, but any turns on the missed approach segment assume that you initiated the miss at the MAP. If the GS flags, the only way you can begin to determine where the MAP is, is by the time. So, time all ILS approaches, and use the time ONLY to identify the MAP on a missed approach. I'd agree with this last, but only in using time as a cross-check to other measurements such as VOR, DME, GPS. Changing winds and other conditions can throw time checks out the window very quickly. |
