The skills, mentality and operation of those kinds of flying are totally different.
Started the basic training with piston props, I have fighter jet hours and currently I am flying a Gulfstream
Studying the SOPs can prepare you for airline operations
No studies can prepare enough you for the physics of flight, energy handling, stressful situations managing
You can't compare the energy management of a LET410 with an F16
Airliners are quite aerodynamically efficient jets, lowering the landing gear won't give you enough drag to keep the speed slow while descending in an approach like the LET410 does
