The final flare in the landing really clicked for me finally today. I wasn't just going through the motions; I understood how and why it worked so I was able to make adjustments on the fly and achieve smooth (not just safe) landings.
My approaches however... could use some work still. Came in too high and fast on two regular traffic patterns, but did much better on an extended pattern.
If all goes well, I'll be making my first solo flight in about two weeks. Very excited.
