Advanced Simulation Technology inc. (ASTi) ended the year by providing another Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC (SERA) system to Simloc Flight Simulation in Spain.
Simloc purchased a total of four systems from ASTi in 2020. Despite the aviation industry’s recent challenges, Simloc and ASTi have partnered to become providers of flight training devices (FTDs) equipped with Simulated ATC Environment (SATCE) systems. Thanks to this partnership, the SERA system will be available on the entire range of Simloc products, from ab-initio to jet training.
The ability to provide a SATCE system on an FTD is now more significant than ever. In December 2020, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) released the “Notice of Proposed Amendment for Certification Specifications for Aeroplane Flight Simulation Training Devices, Issue 3.” Now under review, this amendment specifies SATCE systems within a FTD regulatory framework and identifies training tasks that would benefit from SATCE systems.
How has the pandemic shifted ATC training? Read about it in Sustaining ATC … Remotely.
SERA provides realistic air traffic control (ATC) and other radio communications, teaching students to interact with ATC and handle busy airspaces. Instructors can select and run training scenarios through intuitive web pages. As a result, they no longer need to role-play ATC and can focus on training during each session. This solution enhances any FTD, reducing the instructor’s workload and bringing a level of immersion previously unavailable.
