you’re in Charge
The Embry-riddle
Virtual airspace (ErVa),
combined with the air
traffic control lab,
allows pilots and air
traffic controllers-intraining
to interact in a
simulated environment.
These are some of the
best hands-on training
modules you can get to
acquire the background
to become an air traffic
controller, in one of
only 36 institutions
approved by the Faa for
the aTc-cTi program.
Why does it Fly?
Julie Falsken, aviation
business administration
major, safety minor,
ontario, california, and
Ernesto Velez-Sanchez,
aeronautical science
major, costa mesa,
california, explore
basic aeronautical
principles as they test
air pressure changes
over the wings of their
model aircraft in the
wind tunnel. Says Julie,
who’s on the soccer
team, “The best part of
being here is working
with everyone who
shares your interests.”
