I couldn't go to bed tonight without attempting one more landing and I'm glad I did. With a freshly undented plane I took back to the skies, circled the airfield and came back in for another landing attempt. This time I got my alignment pretty good at a distance although I had to bank gently to the right on the approach to get it perfected. My glide slope was maybe a bit steep so towards the end I gave it some gas to shallow out. I crossed the end of the runway below 100 feet, probably below 50 feet and flared out nicely just above the runway:
Touchdown was nice and easy and lined up just right. I could have easily throttled up and gone around again but I decided to quit while I'm ahead - for tonight anyway.
