i agree 100%, but the first time i landed i think i broke my wooden prop. after that i bought plastic ones and rarley brake a prop even when most people worry that my plane is destroyed.

as for how much your worried with landing do approaces over and over and over and over and ... well you get the idea and as you get better slowly get closer to the ground and even though some may disagree, if you have the right amount of speed cut the engine a foot or 2 above the ground then just let it slowly glide down with some up elevator.

Remember 1. never be affraid to recognize a bad aproach and abort

2. after your on final use the aileron to keep the wings level then use rudder to steer and let the plane slowley sink in.

3. never be afraid of the wind, my second landing was at half throttle sitting still.
