Unfortunately, the only thing I truly know about landing planes is essentially the same as landing a real plane. You have to essentially glide down onto where you want to land. To do this, you have to cut back the throttle, and tilt the plane up about 15-20 degrees, so you still attract lift, while slowing down considerably. This will usually end up in a (relatively) smooth landing. This is also why you normally see planes landing on their back wheels first. They are tilting up, so the back touches down before the front.
