Choose the voice in your right seat
Aircraft models provide the systems knowledge. Mentors shape the way that knowledge is taught: calm airline captain, grassroots CFI, tactical evaluator, CRM coach, technical analyst, or a sharper instructor who pushes harder.
A mentor is not an aircraft model
Pick the instructor personality you want in the session, then fly the aircraft you want to train. The mentor controls tone, pressure, pacing, and teaching style. The aircraft model and live sim context provide the aircraft-specific knowledge.

How mentor choice changes a session
- Choose a calm captain for airliner flows and approach briefings.
- Choose a CFI-style mentor for fundamentals, pattern work, and IFR practice.
- Choose a tactical or evaluator style when you want sharper critique.
- Switch mentors without buying separate aircraft models.
