It's not the act of clicking the AT's off before touchdown as when you clik them off.....10' or 1,000'? I think the later is a better technique if your going to hand fly and land with the AT's off. Of course with the AT's off your airspeed additives come into play so how do you handle that if your cliking the AT's off as you descend through say 50'?

Now I happen to know that Huck just checked out in the B777 , so how do you handle this task in the Boeing when they recommend using the AT's through touchdown and if you do it differently from the MD11, why?
