20 degrees seems to work nice for long wider runways. i use the full flap setting for shorter , less wide runways. it keeps the plane nice and stable during the approach, and also makes the landing slower(also abit smoother) with a shortter ground roll.

what about full flaps? do you guys use full often for touchdowns? I used full recently and with the right power setting made a smoother then usual landing, in less space, and slowed down alot faster.
