SOP's

I may have missed this. Do the 737NG SOP's require a 1000 ft (AAL) call in IMC for stable engines (i.e. spooling up), or the same at 500 ft if the approach is visual? With TOGA and missed approach immediately if the engines are at idle.

Airbus has these SOP's, and they really help avoid situations involving idle thrust close to the ground. I expect both Turkish Airlines and Boeing have these checks. Confirmation please?
