Questions? We have answers:

The Belt Loader VR training module teaches ground-handling staff how to operate a belt loader safely and efficiently at the aircraft. Trainees learn core skills such as controlled driving on the apron, precise positioning at the cargo hold, correct use of guardrails, elevation controls, and belt operation. The training also covers hazard awareness, foreign object detection, and safe communication routines, ensuring staff develop the procedural confidence and equipment handling skills needed for reliable apron performance. The module covers all theoretical basics, as well as the practical training of operating a belt loader according to IATA AHM for initial training.

No, the belt loader training lessons are not videos to watch. Draxon’s VR modules are fully interactive scenarios in which trainees actively perform tasks, make decisions, and receive real-time feedback. This enables realistic, hands-on learning instead of passive viewing and helps reinforce correct behavior in operational environments.

Yes, Draxon’s Belt Loader VR training can significantly reduce the need for traditional classroom theory sessions. Trainees actively apply procedures in realistic apron environments and get real-time feedback when mistakes occur. This hands-on approach accelerates knowledge transfer and procedural understanding, making theoretical briefings shorter, more focused, and less frequent.

The Belt Loader VR training prepares staff for real-world ramp operations by allowing them to practice safety procedures, positioning, and equipment handling in a fully immersive environment. Mistakes can be made and corrected virtually, helping trainees internalize correct routines faster and reducing the risk of costly errors once they work on the real apron.

Yes, most people with a tendency to motion sickness can use the Belt Loader VR training without discomfort. Less than 3% of trainees report any symptoms. Draxon’s training modules are designed for immersive learning in realistic ramp environments with purposeful, smooth movement. This keeps the experience focused and comfortable while delivering maximum training value.

Yes, the Belt Loader VR Training is fully applicable for initial training. It introduces new hires to apron procedures, driving, positioning, and equipment handling in a safe virtual environment. Step-by-step guidance and real-time feedback help trainees build foundational skills before operating real equipment.

Yes, the Belt Loader VR Training supports recurrent training by helping experienced staff refresh safety routines, driving behavior, and procedural accuracy. Realistic scenarios and error handling promote consistent standards and operational readiness for certified ground-handling teams.

Yes, the Belt Loader VR Training is certified by the IATA and developed in close alignment with IATA AHM 1110 and IGOM guidelines. Trainees practice standardized procedures and positioning routines that reflect IATA-compliant ramp operations, supporting consistent, safe, and regulation-oriented ground handling performance.

Yes, the training design is aligned with EASA safety principles. The Belt Loader VR module incorporates safety-critical routines and apron procedures that reflect the intent of EASA operational training guidelines, supporting risk awareness and safe behavior in live environments.
