What is considered a landing?

I don’t think this is a duplicate.
I would like to know what the game considers a landing.
Is it just touching down anywhere? At an airport? With flaps and spoilers? Does every wheel have to touch? Etc…
Thank you.
If this is a duplicate or has any sort of problem, i’m sorry, feel free to flag/delete it. (I didn’t mean to do anything bad).
Thanks

A landing is every time you complete a full flight and you land the plane without crashing you doing need flaps or spoilers although it’s preferred once you get the plane landed it’s a landing 😉

Can a full flight be any length?

In my experience it’s about 100 feet.

Oh, thank you.
When you say “landing”, is it to a complete stop? Does it have to be at an airport, on a runway?

No length, any flight even if you just do patterns at an Airport it counts as a landing

No sir, you do not need to completely stop. It does have to be on a runway I think.

This might sound stupid, but does landing without gear count?

A landing is when you are about 5-8 seconds on a runway.

Umm…I’m not sure.I don’t think so

To summarize, i have to be on a runway for 5-8 secs with gear, flaps and spoilers after an 100-foot flight?

Can I ask how did you land without gear?

Anyways, I always make sure I slow down and spend a reasonable time on the runway during my touch and goes so I know I get credited for the landing.

I took a KLM 747-400 at LAX and didn’t put the gear down.
It was a mistake, i forgot to put them down and had a LOT* of luck.

Sorry for being persistent, but if i make a short landing with a slow plane, and i take less 5 seconds to stop, is it considered a landing?
Thanks, and sorry if i’m being overpersistent.

If you do a quick touch and go at an airport you will be counted XP for that landing ( XP varies on how landing was ) but if you land and keep bouncing it dosen’t count as a landing.
