| Re: some practice landings from the right seat Might not have set off the ELT but I was in the library and felt the building shake  |

| Re: some practice landings from the right seat I think you're being too critical of yourself. That last one qualifies as firm.....in my book anyway. I like the commentary overheard just after that last landing... Funny stuff.

 | Re: some practice landings from the right seat Not so sure about that last landing being a "short" field landing..... Why so high on all of those approaches? I'm just use to crossing the runway and being ready to flare? |

| Re: some practice landings from the right seat I got a better question for you, why not? (we're _simulating_, so why dive for the dirt, when we can aim for the 1000' marks, and stay safe?) |

| Re: some practice landings from the right seat I always aim for the 1000ft markers. . . short, soft, normal. No reason to come in and aim for the number(s) or threshold - just seems foolish. Then again - it'd be a different situation if it was a 2000ft RWY. But I digress. |
