When ever i land in FS9 (ok yes simulator ok whatever) i rarly have a greased landing. Grandma would spill her tea as they as. I have a excellant approach, but when i flare i always bounce. My speed is according to the checklist, so what tricks do you pilot know that will help grandma not spill her tea.

Even when i fly a cessna in real world, i bounce a little. (student pilot)

Thanks

  1. don't let grannies in the simalator


  2. My advice:  Don't flare so high.

    Seems pretty simple, but it seems to me you are being too aggressive on your landing flare.  Relax a bit and let the speed bleed off on its own before you pull the nose up so high.  Try to slowly and gradually transfer all your kinetic energy into drag and dissipate the energy of the aircraft like that.  It takes a bit of time to slow down, just be patient.  Its 100% a feel thing, just keep practicing and you'll get it :)

  3. It could be you're flaring too much or too little.

    If you flare too little, you'll hit the ground with too much speed and land too early.

    If you flare too much, you can be excessively high, so when the wing loses lift, you hit the ground from a somewhat high height.

  4. grandma should not be drinking tea she has weak bladder lol good luck
