I don't expect to ever fly in Australia and certainly do not expect to ever instruct there. However, I have found the discussion quite interesting. The most recently posted gem leaves me wondering about the competence of those who write Australian rules and procedures:

"(a) Maintain a constant landing position aim point"

I have taught aim point technique to primary students and introduced the concept to rated pilots who have never heard of it.

Fundamental to aim point technique is that the aim point is NOT the landing position. Unless there is no flare the aircraft will always land past the aim point. The aim point must be selected making allowance for the flare if the touchdown is to be at the intended spot.
