From 80ktsclamp:
The 767-300 is a very power on landing. When you want to touch down, you pull the power out. In the 757-200, I have the power idle at 30 feet and start my flare at the same time.
The engine type on the 767ER makes a small difference also. We have both GE and P&W. The GE spool-up/down faster than the P&W. If you go to idle on the GE in-close at a low energy state you can get a clunker of a landing. I've never seen this but I've heard about it.
