Airspeed is normally not in my scan at touchdown, or anytime after bringing the throttles back for the flare (744). Just prior to thrust reduction I gauge descent rate, airspeed, and position, and decide how quickly to reduce the thrust. After that, eyes are primarily outside for alignment, height assessment, and runway remaining.
