I've never flown a low wing plane before the Mooney and I am having a
problem with the sight picture working out for me. Is this a pretty
common issue in transitioning to these planes or should I just resign to
the fact that I'm not going to get as nice a landings in my Mooney as I
did in the Skyhawk .

When I transitioned from a Skyhawk to a Bonanza V35 last March, I had a
similar problem. The site picture was a bit different. It just took me
a few rough landings and a bit of practice to smooth things out.

It will come to you, just like it did when you made your first smooth
landing in the Skyhawk as a student pilot. Remember when you once
thought the same thing about that aircraft?
