They have to fly two things, the plane and the cabin. But much of what you see in the cabin is to aid in still performing the basics.
The big deal is that in a big plane, your altitude is controlled more by the power than the elevators. They do more to control your airspeed.
I’ve only done an Boeing 737 in Microsoft Flight Simulator, but it’s a *very* different feel from a Cessna single-engine prop plane.
And did I get it?
You absolutely DID get it! Thanks!
Flying in a Cessna then, you know the term “flying by the seat of your pants.” Did you hear about the “Novocaine” test?
