Hi equinox,
I know this maybe 'too little too late' but the approach on your trail flight-are you referring to the circuit, i.e. joining instructions, or specific points in the circuit, like the 'crosswind', 'downwind', 'baseleg' and 'final'.
There is also the following terms 'long final' or 'short final' referring to length you are from the runway when preparing to land.
Anyway thought it may be useful to you.
