So yeah; I’m also calling Bull**** ��
Agree with Eagle. LH had three hard landings: two in Denver and one in Narita, which lead them to change the SOP and go manual thrust for landing.
I also understand, that at least United if not more US airlines follow the rule "autopilot off, ATHR off".
If one does not posses the basic skill of landing an airplane without auto thrust, than this person should consider another profession.
