Devil Landings!!!

Hi Guys

New to this forum so be gentle with me

I just wanted to ask you experienced flyers for some advice on landings.

I currently have 11 hours, and have started circuits. I do pretty good approaches at the moment but I am convinced that is because of excess use of/use of the PAPI... I have been spoilt at my current airfield.

The other week we did cross wind circuits .. and you guessed it.. no PAPI.. I found it difficult to judge whether Iwas too high or too low. Consequently I ended up doing steep descents.... and slightly back damaging landings.... I finally got it right on my last circuit.... since then I have been trying not look at it, but those beautiful lights just draw me in....

Any advice?
