realistic:

I asked a similar question in another thread a while back and got some fascinatingly opposite responses. One was reassuring, exactly what you'd want (i.e. call of go-around from PNF and immediate initiaion of same), the other was that certain airlines had the approach that Centaurus described in the simulator.

I think the answer is to choose carefully with whom you fly, not all flight decks are equal.

At ground level, I am reminded of when I go driving in the US, I tell the passenger "don't assume I know what I'm doing" to encourage them to scream in terror if I'm about to turn left into oncoming traffic, in the hope that it'll warn me in time. (I only ever started to do that once...)
