I try to stall out over the numbers but then again the small planes are so light the are almost impossible to get to hold onto the ground.

I have flown in several small types and have always had at least 10 knots over stall upon landing. When we get >70% weight on wheels, we cut the power and aerobrake but never landed near stall.
