If you are going to try a three autopilot landing (auto land) in the 757 or 767 remember to be configured for landing before reaching 1,500 feet AGL since the autopilots go through a check that ends at 1,500 AGL and will display a green flag in the autopilot panel on both pilot instrument panels only if the plane is fully configured.  If the check goes well it will display in green - LAND THREE.  It can also display LAND TWO if one of the autopilots does not pass the test but it can still make an auto land. If there is a fail of the test or the aircraft is not configured properly it will display NO AUTO LAND.

You should try to have the aircraft fully configured (gear, flaps & speed) for landing before reaching 1,500 if using auto land and 1,000 if hand flying.  Don't forget to enter the approach airspeed in the computer by pushing the INIT REF button and confirming the final speed by entering the flap setting and speed.

Hope you all are stay safe...
Keep flying,
