I think I'd have to be with someone else and watch them do it several times before I would even come close to feeling comfortable enough to do it on my own.

Chris, it is the same as flying at RDG....just a tad bit busier...........I have flown into and under/around some of the largest hubs in the country....it's all the same......

I wanted to say something similar, but didn't want to sound like a broken record.
It's all procedure. Once you know the procedures (which you mostly do) everything else falls into place. The radios calls might be a bit quicker, they may ask you to fly a different heading once or twice, but the procedures remain the same.
Learn how to do it properly (you already are) and you'll be fine where ever you go.

I'm usually in my chickenhawk and get a kick out of it when they ask for max forward speed when on the approach. I really what to reply "I'm given all she got captain"
