I very recently had an approach,with high winds, heavy showers and turbulence.
The aircraft was stable, and on profile, but at between 100' and 50', we got a windshear warning. As the aircraft was stabilised and on speed with normal thrust, we decided to continue, we were over the threshold by then, and a normal landing was performed.
During the debrief, I discussed with my FO if we should have gone around at low altitude less than say 80 feet, or if we were correct in continuing as the aircraft was under control without a dangerous speed loss or increase nor change in vertical profile.
Anyone else have experience in this situation?
