I think Ed is referring to the approach and ready to land. Not over the fence yet. I use about the same, full flaps at 1/4 mile final and 100 MPH IAS (blue line) and then let start to bleed off. I have full aft trim at this point and once I cross the fence at 85-90 MPH IAS just pull the throttle off and let it sink to the flair. Greases every time. If it is a short field then I will establish an airspeed of 80-85 MPH IAS, with power, full flaps, full aft trim and fly the airplane to the fence then bleed it off. Normally the horn is squawking before I reach the fence but with the stol wing the horn sound pre-maturely.

The POH attached calls for the 90 - 100 like Ed quotes too.
