T.T.H. :

I am having difficulty with your description on how to land.

What do you mean by "feel" the airplane sink?

Do you mean pump the stick back and forth so the airplane sinks in jerky movements like it is going down a set of stairs? Or do you mean you "feel" the sinking sensation physically like with your eyes closed?

I am not trying to be difficult it is just that I do not understand your description regarding "feeling sink".

So please describe exactly how you determine when it is about to touch down.

Thanks.
