If it was flare recovery at an airfield it was authorised not below 10’. If it was outside of an airfield then not below 20’. If you went down to 3’ then probably not so much an issue if the throttles weren’t opened.
Maybe a CRM point though as we always have a throttle brief so either side can call it if the throttles aren’t called open by a set height to prevent any unintentional running landings 👀
