Compton Abbas
I have flown various PA28-181s, into this field over the years. (One of my favourite fields - very good food).
I agree with Genghis - nail the speed at 65kn, or just under if below MAUW, & they land on the numbers every time.
I recall that there used to be a notice on the wall at Compton, put up by the airfield owner. It went something like:-

PILOTS
I provide you with 800m of grass runway.
So why do you land on only the last 400m?

So perhaps a lot of aircraft do float down this runway!
