I have different techniques for different planes. The Bipe and P-47 I keep power on until they just about touch the ground, the 4 * you can coast in from a way out, the Astro Hog is heavy, and I use the grass to brake it in. I try to bring them down to about 2 ft off the runway within 50' of the threshold, and fly them in from there. Some days, the wind is not my friend, most of the time I am on the lookout for crosswind turbulance that flips a wing up in the final moments before I can stick it to the runway.
