What the power on crowd don't see is that you are basically 'powering into the ground'


This will nearly always produce a harder landing than the manufacturer's recommended idle thrust touchdown.


I doubt there is a flight manual out there that recommends (outside of correcting a last minute high sink rate) landing with other than idle thrust on a jet transport.
