Right, I think it's time to define flare. If, by flare, one means an angle of attack different than the approach, i.e. some backpressure has been applied to elevators to arrest either descent or change attitude, then I still claim it's impossible to land without a flare. If a flare is defined as the above but only in the immediate connection with the touchdown, then maybe not. Logic says that there is no way a landing can be made without using back pressure at some point during the approach, or else you'd be driving it on the field like a car.
This has become very a**l...
