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.
Krill-the Thrill will fill the bill til they finally put the 200 where it belongs, in a landfill on a hill in Brazil. Just bring the nose up a little at about 30 feet and let it gently touch down. Safe and dependable. You can add a little more finesse to it after you get a few more landings under your belt.
