that wasnt bad
but here is my opinion:
your landings are very steep
You land very high pitched, you shouldnt pitch that high, and while approaching dont pitch up much, only pitch up a bit for touchdown
you land too fast
You almost tailstrike!!
But you have fun
So keep you working and good luck

What do you mean by that?

Do you mean stay further away from the runway?
Cause i tried that and i get really low and i fear im going to land in water so i up the throttle

Joe Torran-

Here's a little advice from a real pilot (yeah only a cessna, but it counts right?? )

Prepare your landing before your descent, and by the right approach speeds.
If you're going too fast to slow down in time, i'll say it to everyone who does this - GO AROUND.
And try not to use speedbrakes, although there good to slow down in a rush, it increases your descent profile dramaticly, which should also lead to a go around/stall.
Go by the PAPI lights/Glideslope, once you're 5 miles and/or captured the glideslope, get your gear down and lower full flaps, the rest of the descent is controlled by power, not pitch, in a heavy aircraft such as a 767, 777, 747, it's ok to have between 1-5 degrees of nose up, but will increase your chances of a stall, and at that low to the ground, there's not a very big survival rate.
If you can, get your hands on a payware aircraft such as the Level-D 767 (I fly this alot, and it's worth it!) PMDG 747 etc.
These have a FMC which, in default aircraft, you do not have, you have a GPS.
The FMC Can calculate your approach speeds varying on weight/temprature and basicly control your hole flight, Takeoff to Landing.

Practice Practice Practice
Nice though, good luckk!
