ASTi Announces Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC Demonstration Center Opening for Multi-Crew Pilot Licence and Other Types of Training

ASTi, an industry leader in Simulated Air Traffic Control Environments (SATCE) for pilot training, recently launched a dedicated demonstration facility for its Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC (SERA) product. The new SERA Demonstration Center offers current and future ASTi customers the opportunity to witness the full power of a complete, simulated ATC environment and the unparalleled advantage it provides for Multi-Crew Pilot Licence (MPL) and other types of training, both commercial and military.

Inside the Center, visitors can experience SERA as it fills the training environment with virtual ATC controllers, other aircraft and pilots—with all the associated radio transmissions and visuals—while sitting at the controls of an Airbus A320 simulator made by Aviate Training Technologies. Simulation and Instructor Operating Station (IOS) system software from ProSim Training Solutions integrates directly with SERA, giving instructors access to the full range of its features. ASTi recently hosted five representatives from a major international airline and enjoys ongoing engagement following their successful review of SERA’s capabilities.

No matter the fidelity of a customer’s training environment, the SERA Demonstration Center offers comparable hardware to complement its immersive software experience. Watch SERA in action on a full-fidelity flight training device (FTD) complete with a full mechanical cockpit, a flight management computer (FMC) part-task trainer (PTT) or a lightweight and cost-efficient virtual reality (VR) setup. Sit at the controls and fly with SERA to reimagine your existing curriculum as it comes to life (well, almost) with a full ATC experience.

It is difficult for decision makers in the training and simulation industry to truly experience SATCE in the field. Most have limited access to SATCE systems, and facilities that have already integrated SERA are too busy. That is why the SERA Demonstration Center exists and why ASTi is pleased to make it available upon request.

Over the last few months, HAVELSAN delivered a number of Boeing B737MAX and Airbus A320 full flight simulators and achieved subsequent EASA certification of devices. It also collaborated with airline partners such as Turkish Airlines to support its airline customers with flexible solutions such as setting up a Turkish Airlines training center location in Ankara, Türkiye. HAVELSAN is especially putting focus on providing industry leading after sales support and discussing with customers long-term cooperation projects.
