"Why would anyone select flaps up during the landing run".

A F/O did this to me without being asked just seconds after touch down on a very wet runway one night. He told me that it made the aeroplane sit down better. He had come from DC-3s!

After my debrief, I doubt he ever did such a daft thing again (unless he went back to DC-3s).
