SS do not fear if you want to hand fly no FD or AT then you can, I can,t be bothered to go upstairs and get my flying manual but I think as someone has mentioned that 1 FD needs to be on with the FO making sensible selections on the MCP panel you as Capt hand flying will interpret ATC instructions and Fly the aircraft.
The other factor is that the ATIS must imply that you will be visual with the airfield at 1000 feet.
Thus a simple scenario, It is your FOs sector, he/she will takeoff fly the climb and the cruise, 10 mins (or thereabouts(1 min if its a MAN)) he/she will hand the aircraft over to you, at any time in the decent you can take the automatics out and fly.Now with prior agreement with your FO this can be all the way down to 400 baro at LGW(for example), then he/she will take over and land.I appreciate this may take some getting used to.
Another scenario, its your sector, you can brief the FO for the decent and handover.At any time during the approach if you are fully visual and will remain so then you can "take it early" so to speak and configure the aircraft for your own landing.
The BA manual does "encourage" manual flying when the weather conditions allow.
