Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

In an effort between AETC and the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, a contract was signed with Environmental Tectonics Corporation to provide five GYRO Integrated Physiological Trainer II spatial disorientation flight simulators to pilot training bases. The GYRO IPT II will support the SD training requirements in pilot training syllabus by exposing each to typical vestibular and visual illusions found in aviation, enabling them to recognize, confirm, prevent, and recover from SD before they strap into an aircraft.
