It's a good landing if:

1. It's in the right place (correct airport helps and even better in the TDZ)
2. it's done at the correct speed
3. It happens at the end of end of a stabilised approach
4. You were tracking in the correct direction
5. You had the correct pitch attitude on touchdown
6. You dealt with drift appropriately

So if these were requirements were met, and the landing was a bit firm, you now have the most difficult thing ahead - to tell those who may criticise your landing to stick their heads up their bums, politely. I can do the rude version but the polite one still escapes me. What am I doing wrong?
