You can switch the A/THR or the FD off anytime, but not both at the same time.
Visual approaches allowed, but mandatory stabilisation at 1000' (and A/THR).
If you are in the right seat, it depends on the captain. Some of them are scared of hand flying, some encourage it.
The OM-B recommends to maintain your flying skills, but with either the A/THR on or the FD on, hand flying skills are rather deteriorating slowly.
