John Doe wrote: I guess my question is simply put this way, do you cut power immediately before touching down? If not, when? Depends on the type of landing. If I'm trying to make a soft landing, I will carry power until after I'm solidly down. I'll do the same for landings in strong crosswinds. If I'm trying for a short field landing, I'll cut the power several hundred feet up, increase power at about 20' AGL, and cut it again just before touchdown.
