Fuel saving on AIRBUS

Ref. AIRBUS document "Landing in CONF 3 – Use of reversers"

www.merrowresidents.org.uk/pprune/Conf3.ppt

The document is not clear about if the data comparing flap 3/full landings, are being done fully stabilized from e.g. 3000`, or are decelerated approaches, with final flap setting being set at 1500`. Any pprune`r that has that information ?

Also, do any of you have information on the increased brake + tire wear from using the higher landing speeds ?



And last, which is not referenced to the above document :
Any of you have data on fuel saving :
using single-pack during taxi
using 1000`/1000` (thrust reduction/acceleration
not having extended landing lights up to/from 10000`
