Mr. IfixPlanes,

B777 AMM states:
(2)

The pilot must make a decision if a structural examination is necessary.

(a)

The AMM thresholds are intended to aid the flight crew in making their decision, not replace the flight crew's judgement of a hard landing. Boeing has no objection if an operator, at the operator's discretion, chooses to use the AMM values and FDR data to trigger a hard landing inspection in addition to flight crew judgement.


A330 AMM states:

1.
Reason for the Job

After a flight crew report of a hard/hard overweight landing, you must do the inspection that follows before the subsequent flight.

AND

e)
Load report 15:
-
As stated in 3.B.(1), the primary source to identify a suspected hard landing is the flight crew







Questions ?? Ofcourse the final decision is with the carrier how to handle it, I worked for a carrier where pilots got fired due to loadreports. So this is a sensitive issue.

Near EDDF sounds like HAHN ?? Heavy Crosswind and some hard landings ???
