Ahhh man that's too bad; I really don't think you should have been failed on that due to the way you handled it.... In addition, shouldn't he have failed you the instant you went through it (as opposed to waiting until the miss)? I mean what was he waiting for if he knew you'd busted (unless maybe he wanted to see a huge descent down to the loc mins; recapture the ils and fly it down... but that'd be kinda scary to say the least).

Well I don't mean encourage resentment so I'll just say that what happened happened; it's behind you and you'll do outstanding on the next one.

Also not to sound like a complete moron (too late!) but IA = instrument airplane??
