Unfallbericht:
The flight from Hong Kong to Taipei was commenced with a CAT Senior Pilot performing the functions of a pilot-in-command. The flight was cleared for a straight in ILS runway 10 approach. The aircraft descended below the glide slope. The radio altimeter sounded at 350 feet, but corrective action wasn't taken in time.

The Senior Pilot was properly licensed but he was neither the assigned pilot-in-command nor a pilot under training on this flight.
