RE: Making a Good Landing
Touch and Go's are helpful.
I don't know why, but I really enjoy them - the hint is to practise them on days where the wind keeps you from any sort of precision flying, such as pattern aerobatics. I was initially hesitant to fly in windy weather, entirely because of worries on the landing approach and takeoff, but a few days of non-stop touch and go's in gusting conditions eliminated this!
As for the original question - it sounds like the real problem isn't because the pilots are loosing perception on their groundspeed, but because they are landing at an odd angle. A proper crosswind landing, with either a low wing for a "kickout" style approach or crabbing will keep your aircraft under control and at a safer attitude. Maybe it's just me, but flying towards the pilots and spectators sounds a bit scary.
