If its any help, when this came to our 320 fleet it was explained by the fact that if you are in an abnormal condition then more emphasis is placed on landing and stopping your aircraft with the relevant failure than re-using it straight afterwards. Hence no extra distance required. If you are just putting it on the ground for a sick pax then please go softly and get airborne again asap...Extra landing distance therefore required.
