Comparing FCU Baro selection to MCDU APPR page will be a piece of cake.
Threshold alert 2/3 of MOC = 3 hPa.​​

I also think it would be a piece of cake. But nevertheless it is not implemented. A pity.

The three things put into some performance page should be automatically crosschecked: trim, flaps, QNH.

It is especially a pity as non-ILS approaches are becoming again more and more popular with the PBN thing.

How does the hardware look on Boeings? Do they have similar prompts in the FMGC that could be used to compare it with FCU settings?
