#1) You would Sh!t bricks going it alone thinking about, Getting down from altitude, not overspeeding the plane, setting up the FMS, complying with speed and altitude restrictions, flying the plane and operating the radios while at 480 kts., running check lists, talking to the FA's (Flight Attendants) in back, preparing for an emergency landing in case you botched the approach up, making sure you didn't get slow on the approach or even forgetting to put the gear down . . .

#2)You probably wouldn't know what to do first, you might even freeze up. Remember, there is no one there to encourage you or correct your mistakes.

THIS IS WHY IT'S SCARY TO FLY WITH LOWER TIME PILOTS WHO HAVE ONLY FLOWN SMALL GA AIRCRAFT.
