Real life from today...
Approach told me the glideslope was out of service while being vectored for the ILS. While it appeared to be working (it was able to center at the FAF and I could follow it to minimums,) I chose to proceed with caution and use the localizer minimums. It kept me at 500 feet but I found a hole over the approach lighting and was able to land.
So, what do you do if the GS is said to be out but really isn't and isn't notam'd out of service?
