Stand approach
Approach path, speed and stop position at the aircraft.
Ground support
Ground support equipment at the aircraft.
Belt loaders, pushback tractors, tugs, fuel and catering vehicles, positioned precisely at the stand.
Overview
Ground handling and GSE
Most ground damage happens in the last few metres: a belt loader at the hold, a catering truck at the door, a pushback under the nose. AVOPSIM models your ground support equipment with its working functions and puts it on your own stands, with aircraft, ground crew and other vehicles in the way. Operators practice approach, positioning and departure from the aircraft as often as they need before doing it on a live turnaround.
Use cases
What trainees practice.
Each item is a mission type your instructors can assign, repeat and score. All of them run on your own airfield.
Belt loader positioning
Belt raise and lower at the hold with clearance to the fuselage.
Pushback and towing
Connection, push and tow with a modeled tractor.
Tug and carts
Handling a train of carts through apron traffic.
Fuel and catering
Positioning large service vehicles at wing and door.
Apron traffic
Ground crew, other GSE and taxiing aircraft.
Equipment functions
Working belts, booms and hitches.
Night turnarounds
Same stands in darkness and rain.
How a mission runs
How a mission runs.
- 01The instructor selects the stand, aircraft type and turnaround traffic in the Mission Editor and assigns the mission.
- 02The operator drives the modeled unit from the service road to the stand, following apron markings and the equipment restraint area.
- 03Approach, final position and equipment operation are performed as on the real aircraft, with clearance to the fuselage tracked.
- 04The mission scores approach speed, stop position, clearance and any contact, and records the result.
