Yeah, because guys flying bigger jets don't land on taxiways or overfly their destination airport or let burnt out light bulbs distract the entire crew and get in the way of flying the airplane while the plane crashes into the Everglades.

It has ZERO to do with what type or how big of an airplane you fly. I'm 777 type rated, does that mean my word is gospel and I know everything there is to know and I know how to manage a Saab or RJ cockpit better than a Saab or RJ captain?? Absolutely not, not by a long shot. In fact, I have no problem admitting that the Saab guy could probably fly circles around me; so if I'm in his airplane, unless there is something blatantly obvious that I can clearly see they are missing, I shut the frak up and let them run their cockpit and thank them for the ride.
