I've done lots of non-straight-in ILS approaches in the 767, the 777, and the 787. Haneda in Tokyo, Nice France, and the Canarsi arrival into JFK and probably a few more I don't recall. 787 with the HUD is by far the easiest, set the 3 degree pitch line on the touchdown point and put the flight path vector on top of it. All that being said, the UAL crew has some 'splainin' to do.
