You know about the dirty spot method, right? Find (or make) a spot on the
windscreen...maintain a constant descent path with that spot 50-75 feet from
the point on which you want to land. If it moves away from you, you are too
high...if it moves off of the runway and into the grass, you are too low.

My instructor has me doing power out simulted emergency spot landings
in prep for my checkride. I've already had my checkride put back once
cause I'm not getting them right often enough. Did some more today but
still not 100%.

Does anyone ahve any tips? He wants me to land on the numbers. I can
sometimes do it 2 or 3 times in a row but next time, I'll be 100 ft
too high or just a little too low
