N291DR 0.8 Airball data gathering flight

Quick flight out of KRHV to get data from the airdata equipment. Went out over and past UTC and did some stalls and slips at different speeds, then returned for closed traffic. Came in hoping to make a fast descent up till short final but ended up with too much energy and went around. My second time around I did a good touch and go, though floating more than I would like even though I kept it at 50 kias full flaps on final. The last time was a full stop landing, again floating a bit more than I would like. It was bumpy today so I was instinctively holding more speed later in the approach, so that could have been a big part of the float.
