Wrong forum, should be in the FS2002 or COF forum. Anyway, FS2004 hasn't come out yet and none of us have a copy except Pete. However, landing is pretty much the same no matter what sim it is. Come in slowly but quick enough to avoid a stall. Use a combo of throttle, flaps, and spoilers to slow down. When just above the runway, nose the plane up slightly (flare) to decrease speed and lift. Use a combo of ailerons (role) and rudder (yaw) to keep the plane streight. Make sure gear is down if the plane has retracts, this should be done before the plane is over the runway. Now touch down, if the plane has them, set throttle to idle and press and hold F2 to engage the reverse thrusters. Put flaps up to bleed off any final speed and lift and taxi off. Remember all planes are different so get in some practice.
