Bloggs,

I’ve done the approach countless times in the 737, & a few times in the 350. It’s not complicated, & Salivi/Airman have described it well. LNAV/VNAV it all the way (or FLS on the bus). On the 28R side I may arm APP after the final RNAV waypoint, or more likely click everything off & just fly it. If I think of it next time I’m at work, I’ll load it in the FMC to show you how it looks.

The speed control aspect is no big deal either - fly your assigned speed (typically 170 to 5), & don’t overtake traffic on the parallel.

The approach chart Megan posted doesn’t make it clear that the approaches DO intercept the LOC late on the arrival; I’ll post the Jepp chart next time I’m near my work iPad.
