We're proud to support training technologies that help air traffic controllers prepare for real-world operations. Congratulations to @FAANews and @SBAirport on this important investment in readiness, safety, and the future of air traffic management.
📣 New training tool at @SBAirport! The new Tower Simulation System (TSS) gives air traffic controllers real-world scenarios to practice handling routine and complex airport operations, helping them prepare to safely manage the local airspace. It's another step forward in building a brand new air traffic control system! @USDOT
