Remember to use your feet!. Most power pilots waffle all over the sky because they've been able to ignore adverse yaw. Having 20m wings makes a huge difference.

Also if you're not a taildragger pilot remember to flare!

And - before the landing goes to a pile of then remember that you can't open the throttle and do a go-around!

Most of all though - enjoy the experience and the sense of freedom.
