Lab objectives and outcomes

Students will be able to explain the sequential procedures for guiding a commercial aircraft from approach to landing clearance.
Students will be able to demonstrate the correct use of communication protocols to issue takeoff and landing instructions to pilots.
Students will be able to analyze real-time radar data to identify potential aircraft conflicts and prioritize actions to maintain safe separation within assigned airspace.

Powered by SimGenie AI

SimGenie acts as a built-in lab assistant. A learner who gets stuck can ask for a hint by voice, and it adapts its guidance to what they are doing in the scene.
