Indeed. Approach at the low end of the book speeds, full flap with a proper flare. Tiny burst of power in the flare if you've slightly mis-judged it. It was frustrating to watch the +10 (or more!) kt, half flap, brigade drive them on in a 3 point touchdown. The aircraft will drop suddenly and shake the bones if you get it wrong and I can only assume that's why there were so many old wives' tales.
