But some of us who don't have your extensive experience at the controls
of modern jetliners find it hard to visualize just how those slightly
built, physically clumsy flight students managed it all. For example,
whenever I fly, I find that when I bank the plane, I lose sight of the
target during the turn. It took a while before I could line up with
the runway at the end of a turn without making a few adjustments. And
putting the landing gear on a certain point on the runway took about a
dozen touch-and-goes before I succeeded.

Yeah riiiight....
Why do you insist on proving that you know nothing of flying ?

You are close in making a relatively tight and slow turn. Far out in
a high speed shallow bank is much different.

He's either a student of simmer.

Trying to land on a spot and hit that spot are two very different
things. To land on a spot usually takes a few hundred trys althought
luck will bring up a few sucesses some where in there.

To hit a spot you just point at it. If it's a big tall building it'd
be even easier, particularly if you aren't fussy where you hit it.

Slightly built huh. There's all those women flying as Firsts and
Seconds on the same types without trouble

Which same is why he posts this drivel a looong way from flying groups
I doubt that he's a student. from the errors in his aviation claims

I use the stationary spot but then I used to fly off topdressing strips
