Yeah, in the middle of writing that, I remembered that that's what's also written on the control and the ECAM, so official Airbus-speak through and through.
Anyway back to the topic at hand, someone earlier cited Boeing standard procedure to call out "Gear down, flaps xx" simultaneously. But then someone else said it's prohibited. So what's the verdict?
As another data point, my manufacturer's (Bombardier, now Mitsubishi) manual does not specify, but my airline's manual says "gear down, flaps 30."
