And to clarify the company policy:
If touchdown cannot be accomplished within the desired touchdown zone, a go-around SHOULD be CONSIDERED.
ergo it is not MANDATORY
I'm splitting hairs with you Don
You sure? Not saying I agree with the principle when there's miles of runway left, but they did get this RAAS call.
OM-A Quote:
if a valid "LONG LANDING" alert (smart landing-equipped aircraft) or a Runway Overrun Warning relevant to the current runway state (A380) is activated, then the PM shall announce "GO AROUND" and an immediate go-around shall be flown.
