This applys to all planets also:

There is a meter under the Alt. (altitiude) Meter called VSI.
To Land,You need to be between -15 through 0 VSI to land.

I'm quite sure you can land with positive VSI too, so |VSI| < 15 is more like it :).

VSI, Vertical Speed Indicator.

Yep,Just don't literly hit the ground by trying to make a flip at the last moment. :P

Once you did that,you can press f3,Killing the engine (f9) will just save fuel if your on the ground doing nothing with your vehicle.
