Another good session last night (Friday). Decided that going straight to having a go at carrier landings was taking on a bit too much as I don't think I had even landed on the runway! Have decided on a plan of action. 1. Practice landings on the runway getting to know the angle of attack. (First lesson learned last night, do not land with full tanks of fuel, makes you too heavy and breaks the under carriage). For take off and go around and land I changed to 30% which then made the plane lighter and also made landings possible. I ended the evening completing 4 or 5 successful touch downs, take off again and land in succession. No blowing stuff up, but still an interesting evening. 2. Practice landings on the runway and target getting it down on the white block lines at the end of the runway (thanks @fruitbat for that idea) 3. Then move to carrier landings. Have realised that I need to map trim better on my stick. I could feel myself pulling back on the stick all the way in to get the right angle (as instructed by @DD_Fenrir but to date ignored Sorry Teacher.)
