Pilot DAR’s technique of “pull pull hold hold pull pull” is exactly what I was taught in the Dark Ages and it is what I think I do to this day - never push on the stick during landing, except of course, after the main wheels touch down during a taildragger wheel-landing.
What caused me to say “I think I do” was an experience I had last year. I flew as a passenger with a highly experienced pilot who I’ve known for years, in two different aircraft - one with a stick and one with a yoke. On both occasions, I noticed that his pitch control during the flare was extremely “twitchy” with quite noticeable fore-and-aft movements. I don’t think I do that, but then I’m not looking inside the cockpit during the flare. I’m planning to set up a camera to see what I do.
I wonder if anyone else has noticed this behaviour in themselves or other pilots?
