Ryanair's FCOM also mentions this



Landing Procedure Single Channel or Manual - Pilot Flying
and Pilot Monitoring < RYR >

At 4nm, but not later than 3.5nm,
call “GEAR DOWN”, “FLAPS
15." Arm speed brake and check
green light illuminated. Call
“LANDING CHECKLIST DOWN
TO FLAPS.”

At glide slope capture, verify
proper mode annunciation, check
N1 reference bug at the go–around
limit and verify missed approach
altitude set.


is this referring to the FAF - glideslope intercept or from touchdown?

I thought glide slope capture would happen before 4nm...

thanks guys just need these things cleared up. much appreacited, vernon.
