Question 9 degree approach for the 76

The powers that be came up with the following profile for us....500ft at 1/2 mile at Vtoss, maintaining that profile (gives you over 800 per with no wind) with the 50 knots till 100 feet, flare to pull through 55% Q over the pad. (with less than 10 degrees below 30 feet of course). Being fairly new to the 76, I find maintaining 50 knots down to 100 feet followed by a big flare a tad hairy, especially into black holes lit only by reflective cones. You'll make the pad if you lose a stove but...what do the more experienced of you think?
