....almost any engine will die like that when the throttle is chopped from full running to
idle. I learned to give back two clicks (on the stick) of throttle when I chop the throttle
for any reason....not just landing. This will prevent the engine from dying out and perhaps
resulting in damage to the plane if bad things happen trying to land too far from the field, or
in a bad position. I never chop the throttle all the way until the plane is right over the threshold
(desired landing spot) and just a couple feet off the ground.

This technique also prevents stalling the plane on final approach to landing, especially if there
is a headwind. Lots of times the plane is damaged from not making it back to the field, to
the landing area.
