The best advice I had back in the old days from my instructor when I was actually flying a real plane, was to "look down the runway" .
That is, concentrate on the far end of the runway, not what's 50 ft in front of you. You can judge your reltaive height by doing so. Amazingly
enough, it works well even in FS despite the lack of a 3rd dimension.
Once he gave me that hint, I started getting the landings. Previously, the guy in the tower would keep repeating over the radio.."Cleared
to land!" every time I bounced. Funny Guy!
