Single best advice I ever had

I'm nominating this at the best advice I ever had on landings. His suggestion to always try to be at 400 feet when on final works especially well when away from the home airport. It also is a great help when talking to a tower that grants a straight-in approach. It allows you to make use of the airports elevation, in case you hadn't been using that information. Another tip is to aim for the second stripe and land on the third. Do that at the home airport and you'll be making spot landings exactly where the tower asks you to land.
