Why would you, (9airbus), want to do that ? You have flown all the way down the approach with groundspeed mini and the auto-thrust looking after you and maintaining your aircraft energy - why take that away in the last 30 seconds very close to the ground, and risk losing energy and destabilising ??

Use groundspeed mini and the auto-thrust - they have been designed and developed to deal with this sort of thing, and they do so very well.

Don't be alarmed if the engines spool up with a headwind gust, they won't increase your groundspeed, and won't destabilise your landing.
