Yeah handfly every single flight. Wont engage the AP below FL100 and disengage usually as soon as cleared for the approach, often opting for the visual approach is possible. However some capt dont allow you to disengage the AP too early or engage too late, so all within possiblities.

Good practice i say. Needs to be done more. How many times we seen autothrottles fail and overspeeds occur? Happens a bit my way.
