When making your left/right adjustments.. focus on the departure end of the runway.. not the arrival end.. it will give a better angle to correct from..

And that was with a 10 knot crosswind. But I still didn't nail it centerline, the centerline was running along the passenger side. I may be unconsciously tilting the wings to the left when I'm landing.

I just want to add you do not have to land PERFECTLY center line its okay im landing C-172  737, 747, 767, 777 all the time in FSX and i dont always land perfectly but i land close as said before it center line can be to the left or the right of you as long you aren't putting all of your weight on you left or right side of your main landing gear

Ahah, I'll try looking at the departure end. I'm always staring at the arrival end.

What's departure end?


Opposite of the arrival end..  :D

It's early..no coffee yet.. not sure if that's a serious question..

In case it is...  you land over the arrival end of a runway.. and takeoff over the departure end of a runway..

The departure end/arrival end thing really helped.
