zedoscarro, as usual the only recommendation should be read your manual, I'm pretty sure it's all in there. Here's how we do it: we have a task sharing for PF/PNF for both manual and automated flight, put it simple who's head up and who's head down. After the transition to visual at or above the DA/MDA provided above 200 ft and PAPI is coinciding with the GP, follow PAPI till 200 ft thereafter aim for aiming point to touch down anywhere within the TDZ. We always brief LDA beyond the glide hence it's your performance criterium. Landing performance (ALD) even using the LPC isn't accurate it's rather test pilot landing which, you would agree, isn't achievable in normal OPS. This is valid for airbus
