Student practices landing with gear up

15 is the bottom of the green, I like 17 because going below
that can shock cool the cylinders. 12-13 is too low because
some times you might be committing to a landing, [soft
field] with more power than that. Just my preference.

No such thing.

Full power, hot cylinders, power back to 12 inches,
cylinders cool fast, also turbocharged engines make that
turbo damage with big fast power reductions.
