THE PILOT’S PATH*
YOU MAKE THE DECISIONS.
What kind of pilot would you become – and how much would the era you were born into determine your path?
Choose to be born in 1925 or 2125, then make the decisions that shape your training, your career, and your future. The Pilot’s Path is a Retro-Aero interactive story where every choice sends you down a different route.
