Our hard working Orion Simulator team just finished deploying the all new and exciting approach version for Isavia ANS ATCO school. On that occasion the Orion Simulator team invited people from both Tern Systems and Isavia ANS to celebrate the milestone!
The main goal of the current Orion Simulator with Isavia ANS is to adapt and deploy the Orion Simulator for both en-route and approach. Full en-route capabilities were deployed in Q1 2023 and now the team has finalized the deployment of the approach system as well. This means that now Isavia ANS has a state of the art integrated training system for the whole radar environment from APP to ACC and Oceanic.
Tern Systems and Isavia ANS have been collaborating closely for almost 30 years now and the Orion Simulator team is made up of members from both Tern Systems and Isavia ANS. The members of the Orion Simulator team are Sæmundur Johnsen, Pawel Sobolewski, Halldor Indridason, Daniele Quaglia, David Karnå, Snorri Valdimarsson, Saevar Birgisson, Þórir Már Jónsson, Einar Karlsson, Ari Á. Jónsson.
Both Magnus Mar Thordarson, CEO of Tern Systems and Kjartan Briem, CEO of Isavia ANS were of course present.
