ASTi Highlights Simulated ATC Environments (SATCE) at Flight Simulator Engineering and Maintenance Committee (FSEMC) 2024

ASTi, an industry leader in Simulated Air Traffic Control Environments (SATCE) for pilot training, will attend the Flight Simulator Engineering and Maintenance Committee (FSEMC) on October 7–10, 2024 at the Renaissance Tulsa Hotel & Convention Center in Tulsa, OK, United States of America. This year, ASTi submitted a discussion item for the “Innovation in Simulation” session titled “Simulated ATC Environments (SATCE) Adoption in Commercial Flight Training.”

This discussion item prompts industry to examine where new technologies like SATCE fit in flight training from regulatory and practical viewpoints. As runway incursions are happening with alarming frequency these days, it’s important to examine how the industry can shift training priorities to address the reality of these training failures. Which obstacles are keeping training programs from adopting SATCE? Are these decisions being made because of regulations that already—or do not yet—exist? And are these decisions in the best interest of commercial pilot training?

ASTi will also participate in a technology demonstration of its Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC (SERA) product hosted by FlightSafety International (FSI) at its manufacturing plant in Tulsa. SERA is integrated with a G500/600 Gulfstream business jet Level D full-flight simulator at the FSI facility. This demo will take place during the welcome reception on the evening of Tuesday, October 8th. Visitors must register by October 4, 2024 to attend this event

About ASTi
ASTi is the leading supplier of communications, automated ATC, and sound systems to the training and simulation industry. ASTi meets FAA, EASA, and equivalent Level D qualifications with simulators around the world. Since 1989, ASTi has fielded over 10,000 systems at more than 800 installation sites in the U.S. and 49 other countries.
