Hurlburt releases VR training for air traffic controllers

Air traffic controllers assigned to the 1st Special Operations Wing monitor flight line data during virtual reality simulation system training at Hurlburt Field, Florida, June 9, 2026. While traditional multi-screen tower simulator systems remain integral to the curriculum, the integration of virtual reality technology shifts ATC training from passive observation to active participation.
