As a potential pax in the a/c that 28th is trying to land ...
I understand that one of the most difficult aspects to get used to is the position of the pilot's backside relative to the gear and trying to arrange for the gear to reach the runway first.
This has been mentioned by one person, with regards to a SIM ride. If memory serves, the 747 pilot is something like 150 feet in front of and 75 feet above the intended moment of touch down. If he/she is elsewhere it might be problemantical.
However, before 28th starts charging up the aisle, don't forget that the hostie will be able to do it. (Land the plane, I mean). And I shall resist sexist comments like, it will be easy to take over when the Cap has his heart attack as she will already be sitting in his lap.
