The funny email received

My god this is basic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reason for Issue :
OM-A text revised for chapter 8.1.2.1.1(a) paragraph two.
Instruction:
Before commencing an approach to land at the destination aerodrome or
any alternate aerodrome the commander must satisfy himself that he is
able to land and bring the aircraft to a complete stop within 60% of the
Landing Distance Available (LDA).
To determine if the above requirement is achievable, pilots should use the
table provided in the QRH then divide the resultant figure by a factor of
0.6. This value must be less than the Landing Distance Available (LDA).
Airbus : QRH chart 4.03 Landing Distance without autobrake
Boeing : QRH Chapter PI Section 11, Normal Configuration Landing
Distance (with max manual braking)
Follow Up Plan :
OM-A Chapter 8.1.2.1.1 will be amended with the same text.
