A few posters mentioned training earlier. Here in the US, part of your checkride for a type rating will include a viaual approach with no flaps and no vertical guidance (electronic or visual).

On my very first jet, I had to demonstrate to the check airman that I was able to do a visual approach without any vertical guidance. As it was a revenue flight, flaps were permitted 😊

On my most recent jet, I was required to demonstrate an approach with no automation (AP, FD, AT). Are EASA training requirements not similar?
