A question for you.Can you explain the reason for one manufacturers call at DA "continue"? Why not " landing or land" What is the purpose of this call and when should it be used?.....
+1 to the two above replies..

The explanation we got when the company changed the call in our SOPs was that saying “land” was quite definitive and was perhaps subconsciously shifts the mental model/expectations of all involved in the wrong direction, whereas with “continue” you are reinforcing the fact you’ve still got options....
