Chuck, thanks for re-posting and SD thanks for the link to the original post.

I am another PPL student who is having trouble with the last bit of the landing, I think it is judging the height to commence the flare and hold off.

I have read Chuck's posts in the original thread and will certainly try his exercises. He mentions a video he uses for teaching landing which I think would be a great teaching tool but I guess that was for use with the Airbus.

I have mentioned my height judging problems before and a number of posters have suggested asking my FI to fly along the runway at flare/hold off height so I can 'get the picture', sadly that hasn't happened but I'm sure it would help me.

As for 'it will just click' I'm still waiting despite over 100 landing attempts
