Hey safetypee,

No light and no (hands on) procedure.

This means in case of two failures (1. No 400ft uptrim. 2. Flare doesn't engage (green)), your MANUAL landing (see my previous post) will be a lot harder than expected and hopefully on the main gear first.

Conclusion : Why not make the 400ft uptrim an OFFICIAL check ? And clearly state if a go-around is required or not.

Hey error 401,

There is no law saying to go-around for ANY FAILURE during a CAT III. Failures which don't affect your approach and if you are FULLY AWARE of the situation, you may continue. No fidling at low altitude of course.
