Usually I wouldn’t bother replying to a post like this, but once upon a time I flew the 200, you seem humble, and it does have an odd landing technique.

When are you pulling the power? It should be pulled to idle around 50ft. You mentioned “flare”, the 200 doesn’t require a flare, you essentially drive it onto the ground. By driving it, I don’t mean pound it down at 500ft a minute, I mean “roundout” the a/c. Your LCA’s are probably frustrated because you’re floating it, which leads to a potential stick shaker activation and increased landing distance.
