Are people really taught to aim one third in for a normal landing? That was the initial aiming point selected for glide approaches and PFLs, with the aiming point coming back towards you as you become confident of making the runway or landing field and lower the flaps. On powered approaches I was taught to land just after the numbers. Is this unusual?
