  '''INTRO - Where it all have STARTED'''
  The beginning is always a delicate matter.
  It often does take several restarts and new approaches.
 
  This has been true for this writing...
  It has been true for the creation of the LILO-LOWI-Adrenaline "parcours" ...
  and it is a painful truth for all the pilots debuting and struggling with their plane.
 
  We all have been at that very start point, many times, all of us, trying to land back
  in a manner that leave us satisfied, failing, and trying again, repeatedly.
 
  CFIT(1) on final approach, bumpy landings, complicating with Tortoise oscillations(2) ,
  Excursions(3), seem to be the constant.

  '''Wrong Mind - Wrong Landing'''
  My first thoughts was :
  - "...oh, it is just a simulator... with a bit of training we get there..."
  But, despite my best patience and will, it was not "getting there".
 
  I turned my sleuth for help to the more advanced users and several users come to my
  rescue with a lot of advice, suggestion and even own demonstrations.
  I still am grateful for the the time and care shown to help me. Thank you.
 
  Despite their good and best advice,  of course, surely because of me,  that was not
  enhancing my approach and landing skills as much as i was expecting.
 
  Many user suggested me to use the instrument assisted approach. I can understand it
  does help to have a better line up in the approach even in marginal  weather flying
  conditions, but it still does not "do" the landing for me", and even if it was done
  this is exactly the opposite of what i want "understanding how it does really work"
  in order to be able to "dom" it.
  '''Never give up!'''
  I did not give up. Despite the stupid feeling to be fighting some kind of invisible
  and apparently invincible enemy, i have continued to try experimenting with  flying
  configuration each time a bit modified.
 
  Theses continuous modifications lead the search and the questions in new directions.
  And one of theses searches brought an unexpected explanation and solution.
  Actually, it had put the whole problem in a brand new light !
 
  The explanation comes out from comments and sketches done by a, now, retired flight
  instructor.
  I do not think it is a "new knowledge" and I am confident that any airspace student
  will learn it in a, let's say more numerical way.
 
  But i have been delighted by the simplicity and the clarity of this explanation and
  I am going to share it with you.
  For copyright reasons i can not past it here as is, but...  I can do a sketch of my
  own and add the explanation with my own words.
  [[File:Landing - Explanation - 1.png|361x264px|frameless|Landing - Explanation - 1]]
 
  1. little motorboat - no steering => wished track and obtained track are the same.
 
  2. little motorboat - steering to babord - blue : wished track
                                              red  : obtained track
 
                        Due the elasticity of the medium "water" you are a bit
                        drifted away from wished track.
                        Just as long as drifting energy generated by the steering
                        do not become greater then the toward energy.
 
  3. Plane            - steering to babord - blue : wished track
                                              red  : obtained track
 
                        Like for (2.) you are drifted away, but since the medium
                        Air have another elasticity, the drift is different.

  Side view for the plane...
 
  The accumulated energy of the plane in the direction of the descent is not
  going to stop when meeting with the ground !
 
  Rob wrote :
  ---------
  The very same energy that in the air is your friend and keep you alive,
  on the ground become you enemy.
 
  You can not just leave this energy there.
  You have accumulated it, you have to exhaust it.
 
  [[File:Landing - Explanation - 3.png|361x264px|frameless|Landing - Explanation Help - 3]]
 
  Then you are able to land ...and by landing i do mean,
  able to brake, steer and control your plane on land !
  '''A new approach'''
  This was totally addressing the questions i had !  Plus, it was clearly explaining
  the why of my landing failures, and even bringing answers to new coming questions.
 
  Just one question was not addressed :
  - ok, I exhaust the "flying energy". So i am going to stall ...from which height  ?
 
  With the same clarity, the Rob explanation say this :
  - ideally from ZERO feet over the RWY.
  [[File:Landing - Explanation - 4.png|361x264px|frameless|Landing - Explanation Help - 4]]
  - but, maximum from as height as what shock absorber can absorb.
