Any top tips for landing on 04??

Mine would be, nail your airspeed, watch for the windshear over the trees, make sure your aiming point is the 04L numbers, and do not over flare!!! If you do you will balloon. just a small roundout and flare are required, the downslope will take care of the rest.

Does anyone else worry about clearing the pylons when taking off from 04L?? Hot day? Two 'heavyish' POB? Full fuel? Knackered a/c? Pylons start looking big, 400 ft on altimeter, knowing you need 700ft. Nervous? I know I do.
