I have never thought about landing, when actually landing. But come to think of it, I do seem to hold it off for a majorly long time.

I was lucky in that my best ever landing to this date was in my PPL skills test My examiner told me he was chuffed. Neither of us felt it touch the grass until I lowed the nose wheel. I can't quite remember every detail of that landing but in that case I DIDN'T hold it off for a very long time. I must have just got it right. I must of beeing doing about 0.1fpm at touchdown lol. I remember doing a very very nice greaser at East mids one day. I was however screaming it down the GS at about 90KIAS and touch down at about 70 and it was superb.

Like I say, I don't really think aboiut, I just "feel" it down.
