The 900 I bet will be like the 88 and 763 domestic where you almost add power in the flare, then ease it out for where you want to touch down.
I've landed most the planes on this page pulling thrust to idle at 20-25'. Goal is to touchdown at ref to ref-5 in most transport category planes. Adding power in the flare or landing with power completely invalidates your landing data and usually results in the flare, tail comes up, re-flare, but we have too much energy, sink, flare, bang!!
