I fly a Tripacer and I try to cut power abeam the numbers on downwind. I'm
satisfied with the landing if I grease it on the numbers without having to
add power. I always have the power to idle at the very latest somewhere on
short final. I never let the wheels touch with the engine anywhere above
idle.

I guess my question is simply put this way, do you cut power
immediately before touching down? If not, when?

I suppose a carrier landing would be an extreme.

Only curious. Thank you.
