I was being sarcastic Vern.

If you want to talk glide slope or lack there of, have a fuel starvation issue due to a cut O-ring on the fuel filter of a Glassair III like we did. Even with partial power we were losing altitude at an alarming rate and with an 86 mph stall speed I was not having a good time!
