The A320 and MD80s don't really float from what I have seen.
I did have one that flared at 50' though. Whoops. "Click click"

The 320 adds about 500 feet to the landing calculation for autoland. I still haven't seen a 321 QRH yet but I'd guess it's the same or slightly more.

I'm thinking that is more due to the autobraking. Max manual braking is always a lot less than medium.
Never seen that. Unless, of course, I wasn't looking in the right place!
Paging @PeanuckleCRJ! You're probably on long call and far more convenient than my uncharged Microsoft Surface waaaaaay across the compound.

BWAHAHAHA ! ! !
Sorry. Couldn't resist that setup.
You win the internets for today.
That'll cost you $13.99
Too soon!
Is there a flight performance section of our QRH? I have no idea.
I just mash the Landing Perf button on the ACARS and go "Crap, well, we'll have to use medium brakes"

No, no there is not. There is a bunch of av nerd data charts in the FCTM, that might be what he’s talking about.
Looks like the ODM says 900 feet for dry conditions.
Ooh, and in SouthernJetsWorld, max manual braking is a shorter distance than "medium" autobrakes, but we're taught that it's not pressure, but the timing between touchdown and max automatic application.
However all manuals and operational philosophies vary from airline to airline. I remember when I was the Kung Fu Master of the MD-88 and sat in an AA Super 80 from PHX to DFW and wondered what world these guys lived in because they were doing everything absolutely wrong.

Yep, that’s what SJI teaches, max manual will always stop you faster and shorter than any auto brakes.

Our ODM is in our QRH, which is Airbus's way of doing it. I'd guess you guys are matching the Boeing (or MD, who knows) way and it's a separate document, for fleet commonality. As you said, every place has to reinvent the wheel in certain things.

I'm sure they can just staple the ODM to the QRH. That seems to work mostly.

Some guy out there is gonna land a Bus with Autobrake MAX.

We’ll just use a true and tried process that worked once already. Ask any fNWA pilot. It only hurts in the beginning.
