Default RE: question about instructor

I would expect you will be treated the same as any beginner.
The instructor will get the plane in the air and land it for you and, of course, take over if you get in trouble.
The first flight you probably not fly at all. The instructor will take your plane up and get it properly trimmed out.
Your first flights will likely be circuits around the field in one direction, concentrating on smooth turns and maintaining altitude in the turns.
Let your instructor know you have a sim and he will let you know what to practice to get ready for future flights.
