Airways International Ltd is pleased to announce it has been selected by Avinor Air Navigation Services (ANS) to deliver TotalControl simulator systems at six air traffic control units throughout Norway.

Avinor ANS awarded the contract to Airways in mid April following a rigorous contract tender and negotiations process involving ATC simulator providers across the globe. The Avinor ANS contract is to supply and install multiple Tower and Approach simulation systems at Avinor ANSโ€™ facilities at Gardermoen Tromsรธ, Bodรธ, Vรฆrnes, Flesland and Sola airports. The contract also includes 17 custom aerodromes and six mobile simulators.

Airways International Ltd CEO Sharon Cooke says, โ€œWeโ€™re delighted to have been chosen by Avinor ANS to supply and install various configurations of our TotalControl simulation solution.โ€

โ€œWe would like to congratulate Avinor ANS on the award of this significant contract during turbulent times in the aviation industry, and we look forward to partnering with them to support their future ATC training using TotalControl simulators.

โ€œOur advanced simulation technology showcases our โ€˜TrueViewโ€™ next generation tower visuals, which have proved to be a real point of difference in the global market, and the flexibility and mobility of our solution was also a significant advantage for Avinor ANS,โ€ Ms Cooke says.

Anders Kirsebom, CEO of Avinor Air Navigation Services says, โ€œWe are pleased to announce the award of a contract to Airways New Zealand to supply and install their TotalControl simulator solution for tower and approach for Avinor ANS. We look forward to working closely with them in the years to come.โ€

The first TotalControl simulator is scheduled to be installed and operational at Gardermoen Tower by 1 October 2020. Airways has also signed a five-year contract with Avinor ANS for simulator license, support and maintenance.

Airways worked withย Avinor ANSย to develop an implementationย planย intended to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on project delivery and implementation timeframes during this period of travel and border restrictions.

โ€œThe strategy outlines a clear plan to commence Gardermoen training with new simulators on or before 1 October. We have assured Avinor ANS of our absolute commitment to deliver a simulator solution that meets their requirements within this timeframe,โ€ Ms Cooke says.

Airwaysโ€™ TotalControl is one of the most realistic and flexible simulation platforms on the global market, with real-world tower graphics that take advantage of terrain mapping data, photo-realistic 3D rendered models and TotalControlโ€™s leading-edge TrueView technology. The TotalControl simulation suite also includes advanced surveillance and emulates operational systems, creating the most immersive learning environment for maximised training outcomes.
