And to confirm the "fly by the book" and the "every aircraft is different" comments:
The SA Bulldog's short field landing technique involves keeping the power on all the way to touch down, on the back side of the drag curve. 55kn is my memory. You need the power to maintain that speed, and have enough energy to flare, although despite getting into the landing attitude with power still on, flare will be minimal. Power comes off and flaps come up as soon as you touch the ground...
The technique requires practice and it isn't the normal landing pattern...
