LSAS is unserviceable below 100ft, and pilot has complete manual elevator control.
That was changed, wasn't it? After FDX KEWR. I'm starting FDX MD11 training in April - PM me then and I'll let you know.
- The autothrottles can be manually overridden. But better to just click them off.
- An advanced landing technique described in the manual is to decrease pitch by about one degree after establishing in the flare. This slows descent of the aft mounted mains. Full elevator obviously not required.
