Narrative:
Close parallel approach runways 28L and 28 at sfo. Originally cleared for approach for runway 28R then changed to runway 28L. Commuter aircraft turned onto runway 28R approach ahead of us. These approachs increase the pilot workload at a critical time. Very distracting trying to stay ahead as lead aircraft and still conduct a stable approach and landing.

Title: SFO LDA APCH EVALUATION. RPTR WAS SET UP FOR RWY 28R BUT WAS CHANGED TO RWY 28L DUE TO TURBO PROP TFC. PROC REQUIRES AN EXCESSIVE CREW WORKLOAD.
Narrative: CLOSE PARALLEL APCH RWYS 28L AND 28 AT SFO. ORIGINALLY CLRED FOR APCH FOR RWY 28R THEN CHANGED TO RWY 28L. COMMUTER ACFT TURNED ONTO RWY 28R APCH AHEAD OF US. THESE APCHS INCREASE THE PLT WORKLOAD AT A CRITICAL TIME. VERY DISTRACTING TRYING TO STAY AHEAD AS LEAD ACFT AND STILL CONDUCT A STABLE APCH AND LNDG.
