My landings really frustrated me. They should be better - much better, and more consistent. I use the 100/90/80 mph formula - 100 downwind/ 90 on base/ and 80 over the fence-full flaps. I nail the speeds but it seems I often flare too high and then of course drop hard and sometimes even bounce. If I bounce I add power and imediately add power and go around again. Please help me with your tips and experience for consistent perfect landings. Do you recomend power on or power off landings? Do you add a small bit of power last minute in the flare if you notice you are too high? As you come in over the fence what is your decent rate? Full flaps or less? What changes do you make if you are heavy? What references are you using to begin your flare? Thanks!!
