I second what the previous poster said.

1. get the seat position right.

2. Use the FBW to help you.

3. Do not go for a zero sink rate landing.

Check the sink rate at the flare point and let it settle.

Land it like a DC3 - one wheel first in a x-wind and then push it straight, then aileron into wind. The rudder is big and is a speed brake in a xwind decrab. A little extra speed helps the aeroplane and you, the autothrottle takes care of the thrust.

it is a numbers aircraft, not a finesse aircraft.
