 Executor
 ========
 
-Executors are the mechanism by which task instances get run.
+Executors are the mechanism by which :doc:`task instances </concepts/tasks>` get run. They have a common API and are "pluggable", meaning you can swap executors based on your installation needs.
 
-Airflow has support for various executors. Current used is determined by the ``executor`` option in the ``[core]``
-section of the configuration file. This option should contain the name executor e.g. ``KubernetesExecutor``
-if it is a core executor. If it is to load your own executor, then you should specify the
-full path to the module e.g. ``my_acme_company.executors.MyCustomExecutor``.
+Airflow can only have one executor configured at a time; this is set by the ``executor`` option in the ``[core]``
+section of :doc:`the configuration file <../howto/set-config>`.

Review comment:
       Should this use absolute path instead?

       Maybe *trade-off* would work out of the box?
