A last thought! I reckon that many pilots are in a great rush to land - probably not unreasonably if the strip is a bit short. Find the longest runway you can, take on board all the other comments, and then spend a few circuits getting into the flare, and keeping the aircraft in that attitude for as long as the runway permits. You will be surprised how quickly you progress because I reckon that the trick is getting the brain use to the correct attitude in the flare. The longer the brain therefore has to see this attitude, the better - that’s my theory anyway - BUT you really must resist landing too soon!!!!
