Sounds like a 320/360. My 320 has a s01 of 57KIAS. I fly a stabilized
final (sometimes) at 72KIAS with full flaps. I try to touchdown at the dying
quiver at about 57-60. A sidenote of interest. With my speed stabilized, my
cowling is just begin to obscure my aim point. Makes a perfect poor-man's
AOA.

Bill,
Your post does not indicate whether the speeds are solo or with a
copilot. Actually, Bryans post doesn't specify it either. The speeds
look like they may be when solo. It makes a difference in my plane.
In terms of angle of attack on final, in my bird, I can easily see the
runway in the flair when solo, but cannot see it with a copilot. When
landing with a copilot, during the flair, I am looking in front of the wing root
for that sweet spot. I also notice the difference in a friends
360.
