Practice landings with clearer feedback

Build a repeatable landing routine with stabilized approach targets, aircraft context, and post-landing feedback instead of guessing why a touchdown felt wrong.

Supported today

Stabilized approach

Define speed, descent rate, configuration, and runway aim point before you start the practice circuit.

Touchdown review

Use landing scorecards to review touchdown and aircraft-specific feedback after the landing.

Repeat with one change

Adjust one variable at a time: wind, flap setting, aircraft weight, or approach speed.

A landing session that actually teaches

A good landing practice session uses the same aircraft, runway, and weather until the basics are stable. Then you add crosswind, short-field, soft-field, or heavier aircraft scenarios. SimInstructor supports that cycle with aircraft context, landing feedback, and relevant checklist links where published checklist data exists.

Best current aircraft fits

Current checklist-supported landing practice fits include the Cessna 172 variants, Kodiak 100, Piper Dakota, Icon A5, Vision Jet, C-46, and AeroElvira Optica. Airliner checklist pages are not promoted until published checklist data exists for those aircraft.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this score every landing automatically?

Landing feedback is available through the shipped Rate My Landing workflow. It is a post-landing review tool, not a certified flight-test system.

Can I use crosswind practice?

Yes, as a simulator practice scenario. Use repeatable conditions and ask the instructor to review technique, configuration, and next-step corrections.

Do all aircraft have landing checklists?

No. Checklist links are only promoted for aircraft with published checklist data.
