to further jonnyb's 'got time' landing, on your approach, pick a spot like the end of the runway, and watch which way it is drifting in relation to your plane: if it is moving farther from you, you are landing short; if it is moving under you nose, you are landing farther down the runway. Use your throttle to control your speed while trying to keep a steady angle, you will be able to correct your approach that way. When you get close, hold your nose steady and a bit high, chop throttle, keep your nose angle and the plane will settle down nicely. From there you will start getting the feel of pushing the plane down 'hot' when in a hurry, or maybe coming up short and gunning it a bit to make the runway. Practice offline until you get it down....then start making carrier landings, they are the funnest.
