Your proberly missing the vital phrase.
First of all get the instructor to show you the landing picture.
As you fly down the approach make sure your trimmed.
As the runway appears to starts moving towards you pitch the nose up to the straight and level attitude.
As the runway sides start coming up towards you pitch to the previously demonstrated picture while putting the power to idle. Waggle the rudder pedals so the instructor thinks your actually doing something with them.
Hold the attitude. Now this is the important bit.
In a loud clear voice say "get down you whore"
Once the aircraft has done as its told hold the same picture by increasing back pressure then lower the nose gently to the runway while continuing to pretend you know what your doing with the rudder.
Jobs a goodun.
PS ladys can substitue bastard instead of whore
PPS this method works up to 10 tons in my experence.
