Hi Lemurian
I thought this might open a small can of worms...
3Ten wrote in bold
* At least 400 feet above the runway, in case of failure during approach, take off or go around,
The landing roll is not part of approach, take off or go around, it is a different flight phase. 400 ft rule applies to other flight phases.
And in the TAM situation, until you close No.2 T/L the flight path will never stabilize! So if you wait for a stable flight path before taking any further action ..... you overrun.

Surely the whole point of this new warning is to alert the crew to take immediate action?
