Altimeter setting error - A320 near-crash CDG, 2022

Sure but that is A380 problem, I think go around or flare from glide at 50ft will result in wheels touching ground badly with people losing teeth due to engine & airframe inertia? go around from 50ft agl in pistons do not result in wheels touching the ground

I think it’s worth trying to follow LPV at least once in lifetime, bellow DA all the way to touchdown in typical piston at 80kts Vref (even using hood with someone doing RHS), just to see how things go, how much quality the signal has, how much options and risks one has, there is always plenty of time to flare or go around, it should give enough confidence with regards to the quality of 3D SBAS guidance as well as any concerns about low visibility, wrong altimeter setting, crashing on trees or hills, getting lost…
