eCoach 3D Tower eCoach 3D Tower is an extension to simulations provided by eCoach Enterprise and eCoach Basic to provide 3D visualisation of the environment on and around an airport. Advanced ground simulations for aircraft and vehicles are included. Pseudo pilots working positions can be fitted with an extra touch display to control aircraft and vehicles on the ground. The user interface (UI) has been specially made for ease of use to increase pseudo pilot efficiency both in the air and on the ground. Aircraft can fly fully automated according to flight plan or can be hand flown using a graphical user interface or - if the user prefers - using keyboard with speed keys. A simulation can contain many elements subject to pilot control, like: Airport lighting Weather Parking, pushback, and taxiing Emergency situations Airport An important aspect of the 3D tower simulation is a good model of the airport for the tower simulation. eCoach 3D Tower uses several sources to build a realistic airport model containing runways, taxiways, aprons, parking areas, buildings, signs, marking, airport lighting, roads, etc. Terrain The terrain model uses information about terrain levels and type of vegetation. To increase realism and visual recognition, the terrain model can be covered by orthophotos from aerial or satellite photography. Other types of objects may also use photos to provide a close to reality look. eCoach 3D Twr contains a lot of aircraft models with different liveries for various airlines. New aircraft and vehicle models and liveries can be added to the system as required. The package also contains several vehicle models.
