Narrative:
Heavy snow, dark, 3 hours late, lots of distrs. Cleared for takeoff while still 400 ft from departure end of runway. Unable to see us. We had to cancel takeoff clearance due to a question about our hold-over time for deice. I said I needed 1 min. Tower canceled takeoff clearance, but we were already past ILS hold short line. I held at the regular hold short line and did my business. Then, I saw a B727 appear on short final and he executed missed approach -- possibly because we were past ILS hold short. I didn't know there was a plane on final and didn't think that tower couldn't see me.

Title: FREIGHTER CREW TAXIES PAST ILS HOLD SHORT LINE RESULTING IN MISSED APCH BY ACFT ON ILS.
Narrative: HVY SNOW, DARK, 3 HRS LATE, LOTS OF DISTRS. CLRED FOR TKOF WHILE STILL 400 FT FROM DEP END OF RWY. UNABLE TO SEE US. WE HAD TO CANCEL TKOF CLRNC DUE TO A QUESTION ABOUT OUR HOLD-OVER TIME FOR DEICE. I SAID I NEEDED 1 MIN. TWR CANCELED TKOF CLRNC, BUT WE WERE ALREADY PAST ILS HOLD SHORT LINE. I HELD AT THE REGULAR HOLD SHORT LINE AND DID MY BUSINESS. THEN, I SAW A B727 APPEAR ON SHORT FINAL AND HE EXECUTED MISSED APCH -- POSSIBLY BECAUSE WE WERE PAST ILS HOLD SHORT. I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A PLANE ON FINAL AND DIDN'T THINK THAT TWR COULDN'T SEE ME.
