Spoilers are not to be extended beyond 300 KIAS and never at or below 1000 feet radio altitude (AGL).

I LANDED.  ;D ;D ;D ;D I landed perfectly. I used 30 Flaps no spoilers at a speed of 130-150 Knots. Best of all I landed right on the TDZ and the centerline. ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'll keep practicing and see what I can do with a 747. :D

Thanks All

Hi a1,
       What i do to line up perfectly is use the ILS system, tune the radio to the right frequency, press "APP" then let the plane do the lining up its self when its lined up take the controls your self i have never got a landing wrong using this method. Oh i use 30% flaps when landing in a 737 and 25% in the Airbus A320. What i think is "Big Plane  30-40% flaps, Small planes 15-20% Flaps.

You need to keep your eyes on the instruments - and on the runway ahead, even if you're using the autopilot APP, because if you get a crosswind (always a possibility with real world weather) then you can still find yourself offline, with a need to correct manually.
