Less spoilers near touchdown should cause a lower sink rate and lower the chance of a bad attitude tail strike breaking something.

But doing the last half of final aiming for the end of the runway with a small spoiler setting puts you in a low energy situation. With a long runway, this could be fixed by moving the aim point down the runway and expecting the student to get there.

As far as training is concerned, I wonder if this might miss the goal of landing with the right sight picture, right touchdown attitude, in a short field, or over a tree line. That seems a lot of forced relearning later in trade for saving the trainer.

Maybe this isn't the right trainer to use first to teach landing?
