Is Your Pushback Training Facing These Industry Challenges?

  • High training costs and limited access to live equipment restrict onboarding scalability
  • Real-world safety risks limit hands-on learning during pushback procedures
  • Inconsistent training across stations leads to SOP deviations and operational inefficiencies

Traditional methods like classroom sessions and limited ramp walkthroughs lack realism, often leaving the crew unprepared for high-risk, high-pressure pushback manoeuvres.

Realistic, Risk-Free, Repeatable Training for Pushback Operations

Train crews in lifelike pushback scenarios without real-world risks. JuegoneXR’s VR modules offer safe, repeatable practice to build precision, confidence, and SOP compliance.

Real-World Scenario Simulation

Experience ultra-realistic ramp conditions with headset-based VR simulations replicating pushback zones, aircraft types, marshaller cues, and towing procedures, ensuring operator readiness for high-pressure, real-world apron scenarios.

Interactive Module Flow

Trainees navigate sequential pushback tasks, chocks removal, headset connection, brake check, clearance, and towing, through intuitive, instructor-guided VR modules that reinforce accuracy, timing, and operational safety at each step.

Environmental Challenges

Train under varying ramp conditions like rain, fog, low visibility, or icy surfaces. Environmental variability builds operator adaptability and risk awareness, which are critical for smooth pushbacks in unpredictable weather.

Tug Model Adaptability

Simulations adapt to different tug makes and models, letting crews practice control layouts, engine types, and attachment mechanisms. Prepares staff for mixed fleets and model-specific pushback operations.

Emergency Protocol Drills

From brake failure to headset disconnection or engine fire, operators rehearse rare but critical emergency events, instilling calm, procedural recall, rapid response skills, and situational awareness in high-stress situations.

Safety-Focused Learning

Reinforce emergency response training by simulating high-risk scenarios such as brake failures, communication breakdowns, and improper aircraft movement, ensuring staff are prepared to handle unexpected challenges with confidence and efficiency.
