Watch out for some common mistakes, such as over-controlling and reacting incorrectly to visual cues. You should arrive at the threshold on the centerline at the proper height and speed each time.

Smaller aircraft may only have short field landing distances for maximum gross weight. This gives you a safe buffer on the stall speed and plenty of time to stabilize.
