On A-320 if the aircraft has DMU/FDIMU with an enhanced load report 15, do the "inspection after hard/overweight landing for aircraft with enhanced DMU/FDIMU load repot 15".
The above doesn't make sense. Once an entry has been made the landing parameters as posted must be confirmed to be within limits to avoid an inspection.

An aircraft fitted with enhanced DMU's may just save the work involved in confirming those parameters. For example if a Captain makes an entry "suspected hard landing" then if no load 15 report available the second option is DFDR readout. If that isn't possible then you must perform the inspection.

If however a load 15 report is available then you will very quickly be able to determine whether an inspection is necessary or not.

It is that simple. If you believe that because there is no load 15 report the landing wasn't "hard" you are very much mistaken
