Missed the landing clearance and had to ask to "say
again". The read back is easy when you play it over in your head, on the
ground, but up there watching altitude, airspeed etc, you get stupid.

That's what paper and pencil are for.

Shot the worst ILS I ever have. Fly threw the beam, not once, but twice
... was too fast, my descent rate was good however. Cancelled IFR in the
air when I was maybe 1.5 miles out. Slowed her up and greased it on.

What would you have done if you had not been able to see anything?
