Agreeing with @Will_A on the landing!
I will share a few issues I noticed and how you can improve them. Generally you seemed to be well aware of what was going on and with a bit more preparation you will make very good approaches and landings as you definitely have the ability to do so.
If youād like I noted what I noticed below, if not, no problem and nonetheless it was a great stream, thanks for sharing!
The few things I noticed:
Use your flaps (you could have deployed them earlier at times).
Go manual. You are able to fly the aircraft manually as we have seen and you should use it as the A/P has issues keeping speed and altitude stable, which isnāt your fault, but manual flying would make it more realistic.
Donāt use spoilers on final (if not really needed).
Fly with a slower approach speed (135-145kts should be fine).
For any details please PM me to not go off-topic.

I was flying manual, through the whole 10 nm final i was on manual flying with my joystick, thatās why it was a bit wobbly. i do agree that I could have deployed my flaps at earlier times and i should have put my spoilers in earlier, and my approach speed could have been lower.
thanks so much for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it.
and thanks on the touchdown @Will_A

Was referring to the minutes before, where you were switching some things (altitude or heading) off, but kept the A/P for the rest.
Commit to flying manual (including the turn on final) as it will definitely sharpen your skills!

oh are you talking about just changing the heading to get onto final during base? if so yeah i probably could fly that manual, will try next time!

Great! Yes, I mean the whole turn to final (including joining the glideslope). Itās though at first (especially without the FPVā¦) but it is very rewarding as well.

Cool live stream. I spawned in for a few seconds just before your landed :)

You should do more of these in the future. Sadly I was unable to catch you this time. š
