Being a glider pilot, and a pessimist, I always land without power...going to idle at 700 ', turning base and final by feel. I got pretty good at it years ago. Now days I am finding it increasingly difficult to get stopped in the 2600' available. Probably getting old and cautious, unwilling to slow down enough on final. My brakes are poor but they always have been. As to glide performance with engine stopped, I played with that quite a bit long ago and fought it to be good except when the prop was horizontal...then it dropped considerably
