I am doing 3 days initial in a full motion sim and then an additional 2 days by same instructor in the plane. Then another 25 plus hours of mentoring by our on-staff pilot....

Sounds pretty good.

I would sound one caution. Instructing in the sim and instructing in the airplane require very different skill sets. Not all instructors have both.

There is a sad story where a Flight Safety instructor took a customer flying in their airplane to do an engine check and they both ended up dead doing some pretty stupid stuff. An in airplane instructor would have managed that better.

I've seen the reverse, too, in airplane instructor trying to be a sim guy and it was rough.

I hear you mike, this particular guy does both very well. He's a king Air, conquest, 421 specialist who specializes in doing the stuff you can't practice in the plane in the full motion sim and scenario based training in your plane....the guys that know me personally on here know i don't cut corners and do everything I can to mitigate risk.... I'm an all in kinda guy with a lot of humility when it comes to flying...
