Try attempting a proper landing approach without a throttle.

Auto throttle all the way!

Better idea: CAT IIIA Autoland, don't even need an analog input.

For real though, the landing is where you need the most precise control over both your control surfaces and throttle for a good landing.

But then why even play a flight sim?

And yes, playing FSX with Xbox controller, landing is where I wish I have throttle or sometimes even rudder controller (since by default the directional control controls nose gear, ailerons, and rudders at the same time)
