How much lack of similarity in airliner flying?

Is there a big red arrow labeled "PTT SWITCH HERE" in the
737?

They don't have PTT's, they have microphones that they hang up on a
hanger on the sidewall.

It's on the yoke, just make sure you don't mistake the a/p disconnect or
the trim control for it.

During Cat II trials, my colleagues logged a successful Cat II with autoland
at an airport without a Cat II ILS.

That's not too surprising. A Cat 1 ILS can be with in the limits of Cat
II, it's just not guaranteed to be that way all the time.

Our B-727 minimums were CAT II ....
