Tweaking the throttle on approach

How far above the runway? And you don't stall or get a tail strike?
Of course, something like an Archer likes to be landed a little
hotter, without having full back stick.
In the Baron I don't think I've ever pulled the yoke all the way back. I
stay
almost level until I'm very close indeed to the runway, then pull back on
power a bit and flare. No idle and no full back stick, though. I haven't
actually tried that, but from the way the Baron behaves my intuition tells
me
it wouldn't be suitable.
I heard that you run out of elevator authority if you get too slow but
that's only a guess...
Possibly. I'm usually at least 10 kts above stall speed so I don't really
know (or maybe you are not talking about a Baron?).
Too bad there isn't some kind of virtual flight instructor network for msfs.
You really could use it.
