Which of these are best for simulated landings and patterns?

Good question. I'd like to see a sim dedicated to basic training.

That said, Condor does a pretty good job. The "flight school" section sets
the glider up in a downwind and the POV control lets the sim pilot look
sideways at his aim point. If you just want to practice flair and
touchdown, use the winch launch and just release at about 50' AGL. The
downside of Condor is that the reset for another flight takes way too long.
