I need a little help from my fellow CFI friends and controllers ..
When we're shooting an ILS and ATC says "turn right heading 250, maintain 4000' until established, cleared for the RWY X ILS"
I always thought it they put us on an intercept altitude (4000' in my example)
Today, I was told that we should maintain the 4000' until established on the LOC course, then descend to our intercept altitude shown on our profile view for GS intercept.
Whats the correct way?
