Overview
VVStack™ is an Air Traffic Control trainer that extends the basic traffic processing skills learned in the prerequisite VVEnroute™ course. Concepts are presented using a step-wise delivery and skills are practiced on targeted simulator exercises, with feedback provided automatically. The course may be used as an extension to VVEnroute™, or for controllers with surveillance experience transitioning from a less congested environment.
Learning Outcomes
The objective of the learning process is to master the management of an inbound sequence to an arrival gate based on distance spacing or timing criteria. This encompasses the capability of choosing and executing the correct control strategy, which might include vectoring, speed control, holding, and assigning gate times to meet the defined goals. Efficient handling of holding traffic and the utilisation of an Arrivals Management system are pivotal to these learning outcomes.
Simulating Arrivals Management
Training thousands of prospective Approach Controllers how to manage a busy sequence to the runway.
Covering fundamental skills in surveillance control – ideal for students experiencing ATC for the first time.
Teaching the complex skill set required to manage an arrivals sequence with the use of holding, vectoring and time requirements.
A training capstone: teaching the simultaneous management of mixed departures and arriving traffic.
The most effective way to deliver targeted competency training for the response to a compromised separation event.
