B744/-8 Speed selection

Question guys, and if you can provide a reference (i.e. page in FCTM, etc) that would be great.

I am under the distinct impression that when configuring your flaps for landing (speed window open) that it is not necessary to wait for the called for flaps to reach that position (i.e. green line on display) before being allowed to reduce your speed to that flap setting on the AS indicator. Somewhere, I recall reading that Boeing has stipulated that adequate protection exists.

Any references out there?

Thanks!
