I note with much interest the remark about non-existent "no flare" call. True, unlike for instance "no reverser", it is not in the FCOM. What is the PM then supposed to do if there is no flare mode engagement?
Interestingly, my first Airbus LVP course was in Toulouse and for sure I had been trained to announce NO FLARE if the FMA mode is not there by 35 ft. And it has been a check/pass-fail item on the several* operators' LVP curriculums, I had the pleasure to familiarize myself with.
*One operator prescribed "GO AROUND" call instead of "no flare" by PM.
Check Airman: For CAT IIIA I struggle to imagine how PF could effectively scan for outside reference and make the decision at 50 ft, and then come head down to verify FLARE mode engagement. Same for CAT II, actually. PM is head-down and thus FLARE is his responsibility to verify and then announce to PF to keep him in the loop.
I should probably not post when I'm tired. I completely misread the original post, then proceeded to post nonsense. My company has a "no flare" callout, which would trigger a GA.
