Questions? We have answers:
What skills are gained in the Towable Stairs VR Training module?
The Towable Stairs VR training module teaches ramp and passenger service staff how to operate towable passenger stairs safely and efficiently at the aircraft. Trainees learn safe movement and positioning on the apron, precise alignment and height adjustment at the aircraft door, correct stabilization and securing procedures, and passenger-safety readiness steps (handrails, safety gate/barrier). The training also reinforces hazard awareness, crew coordination routines, and no-touch discipline to prevent aircraft contact. The module covers theoretical basics as well as hands-on practice aligned with IATA AHM for initial training.
Are the Towable Stairs Training lessons videos to watch?
No, the towable stairs 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.
Can the Towable Stairs VR Training module help reduce time needed for classroom training?
Yes, Draxon’s Towable Stairs VR training can reduce the need for traditional classroom theory sessions. Trainees apply procedures in realistic apron environments and receive real-time feedback when mistakes occur. This accelerates procedural understanding, making classroom briefings shorter, more focused, and less frequent.
What are the benefits of the Towable Stairs VR Training for real-world operations?
The Towable Stairs VR training prepares staff for real ramp operations by letting them practice positioning, stabilization, and passenger-safety procedures in an immersive environment. Mistakes can be made and corrected virtually, helping trainees internalize correct routines faster and reducing the risk of aircraft contact, unsafe setup, and operational delays on the live apron.
Can people with a tendency to motion sickness do the Towable Stairs VR training?
Yes, most people with a tendency to motion sickness can use the Towable Stairs VR training without discomfort. Less than 3% of trainees report any symptoms. Draxon’s modules use purposeful, smooth movement to keep the experience comfortable while still realistic.
Is the Towable Stairs VR training applicable for initial training?
Yes, the Towable Stairs VR Training is applicable for initial training. It introduces new hires to safe movement, positioning at the aircraft door, stabilization, and passenger-ready procedures in a safe virtual environment. Step-by-step guidance and real-time feedback help trainees build foundational skills before operating real equipment.
Is the Towable Stairs VR Training applicable for recurrent training?
Yes, the Towable Stairs VR Training supports recurrent training by helping experienced staff refresh positioning accuracy, no-touch discipline, stabilization routines, and passenger-safety procedures. Realistic scenarios and error handling reinforce consistent standards and operational readiness.
Is the Towable Stairs VR Training aligned with IATA standards?
Yes, the Towable Stairs VR Training is developed in close alignment with IATA AHM 1110 and IGOM guidelines. Trainees practice standardized procedures for positioning, securing, and operating stairs at the aircraft door in a way that supports consistent, IATA-compliant ramp operations.
Is the Towable Stairs VR Training aligned with EASA standards?
Yes, the training design is aligned with EASA safety principles. The Towable Stairs VR module incorporates safety-critical routines and apron procedures that reflect the intent of EASA operational training guidance, supporting risk awareness and safe behavior in live environments.
