The results could be fatal as they have been noted in various publications of NTSB reports on accidents involving false glideslope indications. Besides, the next time you try an approach at your nearby ILS, you'll find the controller will tell you, "Barnburner 1234 cleared runway 7 ILS approach. Maintain 4000 feet or above until intercepting the localizer". Larry
