Narrative:

I was on the localizer (back crs) runway 11L approach. I was established on the localizer, had selected the wrong DME information and descended down to 680' which is the MDA prior to the final approach fix. Realizing my mistake, I shot the missed approach. On the missed approach, I was vectored for the ILS runway 29R approach. Fresno approach wanted me to make 180 KTS then changed to 150 KTS to the OM. The plane I was flying has to be at 130 KTS. Therefore, when I intercepted the G/south, I had to raise the nose then chase after the G/south in order to avoid a full deflection of the G/south needle. In both instances the cause of the sloppy approach was due to the fact that I agreed to maintain airspds the airplane I was flying was not up to handling. This caused a destablized approach. In the first one, I was asked to slow down then to increase the airspeed. In the second case, he wanted me to maintain an excessively fast speed to the OM then fly the approach faster than my normal approach speed. Learning from this, I should have declined both airspeed requests and accepted vectors for sequencing.

Title: ATX CARGO TWIN MISSETS DME ON LOC BCRS TO RWY 11 AT FAT, THEN HAS DIFFICULTY WITH SPEED REQUEST WHEN FLYING THE FRONT COURSE ILS TO RWY 29.

Narrative: I WAS ON THE LOC (BACK CRS) RWY 11L APCH. I WAS ESTABLISHED ON THE LOC, HAD SELECTED THE WRONG DME INFO AND DSNDED DOWN TO 680' WHICH IS THE MDA PRIOR TO THE FINAL APCH FIX. REALIZING MY MISTAKE, I SHOT THE MISSED APCH. ON THE MISSED APCH, I WAS VECTORED FOR THE ILS RWY 29R APCH. FRESNO APCH WANTED ME TO MAKE 180 KTS THEN CHANGED TO 150 KTS TO THE OM. THE PLANE I WAS FLYING HAS TO BE AT 130 KTS. THEREFORE, WHEN I INTERCEPTED THE G/S, I HAD TO RAISE THE NOSE THEN CHASE AFTER THE G/S IN ORDER TO AVOID A FULL DEFLECTION OF THE G/S NEEDLE. IN BOTH INSTANCES THE CAUSE OF THE SLOPPY APCH WAS DUE TO THE FACT THAT I AGREED TO MAINTAIN AIRSPDS THE AIRPLANE I WAS FLYING WAS NOT UP TO HANDLING. THIS CAUSED A DESTABLIZED APCH. IN THE FIRST ONE, I WAS ASKED TO SLOW DOWN THEN TO INCREASE THE AIRSPD. IN THE SECOND CASE, HE WANTED ME TO MAINTAIN AN EXCESSIVELY FAST SPD TO THE OM THEN FLY THE APCH FASTER THAN MY NORMAL APCH SPD. LEARNING FROM THIS, I SHOULD HAVE DECLINED BOTH AIRSPD REQUESTS AND ACCEPTED VECTORS FOR SEQUENCING.
