G'Day Paul,

You have more good advice here than any ten people could ever use. Having just returned from flying and cutting the umbillical cord with my latest student here is my second go at giving you advice.

Ask one of the experienced flyers to stand with you whils't you are landing and "talk" you through the process. They will be able to see what you are doing, both correctly and incorrectly and advise you accordingly.

If you get sick of the cold weather there down south and are joining the lemming like rush of "Grey Nomads" seeking warmer climes drop me a pm and I more than happy to meet you at our field just south of Port Macquarie and help you out with the landings. We have two adjacent strips at 90degrees to each other, one being 1500m of sealed runway and the other 200m of grass cross strip. Yes it is a small private airport.

Cheers,

Colin
