But in many airlines the option of a fully manually flown approach and landing, for handling practice, is not allowed, even in low workload severe CAVOK.
For example Virgin allow it when weather and workload conditions allow, BA completely ban the practise.
On the BA B777 and the B787. Flying manually is OK with cloudbase above 1,000', Autothrottle off is discouraged but not banned.
