I know we're off topic, but I just have to respond to your comments FullWings.
I know from experience that I can cushion an impending hard touchdown at the last moment only by an application of thrust - if I pull back on the controls, the sink rate stays the same and the landing ends up harder.
Also, quite definitely, in experienced hands a 'greaser' can be achieved time and time again: 1.) by having the correct r.o.d. in the last hundred feet or so and 2.) after the flare and just before the mainwheels touch, pushing forward slightly. (Non standard I know).
My own experience of this is absolutely in line with BOAC's.
