As three greens says the aircraft can be a bit hard to hold off in the flare but is a problem encountered when lightly loaded and at the front of the C of G range , so I would advise some balast in the baggage bay if you are new to the type.

The other thing is that due to the longer wing and less induced drag it will tend to float a little more in the flare so make sure that you are at the correct speed as you come over the hedge , dont be tempted to add a few knots for "safety" the flight manual speeds are the right ones !.
