Since the initial development of FeelThere ATC simulators for Air Traffic Controllers, gamers and aviation enthusiasts, we are aiming now to offer an affordable software that allows you to learn while playing in a professional and extremely realistic environment.
From our own experience and also suggestions and the feedback received about the Air Traffic Control games and applications, it was possible to create a simulator, developed from scratch and with the potential to become a benchmark in the training of controllers.
The most recent version of this simulator – TOWER! 3D & Pro – and especially the new advanced simulator (coming soon in 2022) TOWER! Simulator 3 have reached a reliable level of simulation of an environment as real as possible, which have been considered to form part of formal education processes.
Today we are pleased to announce the agreement with Hampton University (School of Engineering & Technology), Department of Aviation, for the use of FeelThere ATC simulator software in the Air Traffic Control laboratory (Tower).
This technology will provide students with a realistic tower environment that will help improve their understanding of ATC procedures including voice recognition, electronic flight strips, 3D views of the airport and much more.

About Hampton University
With a rich history and a long tradition, Hampton University is a dynamic and progressive institution of higher education, offering a wide range of technical, liberal arts and graduate programs. In addition to being one of the best historically black universities in the world, Hampton University is a tight-knit community of students and educators, representing 49 states and 35 territories and nations.
A university with roots that go deep into African-American history and experience, but with goals set squarely on the horizons and challenges of today’s community.
It is located along the shores of the Virginia Peninsula, near the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, surrounded by the city of Hampton which has a wide range of commercial and residential areas, historic sites and miles of coastline and beaches. Attractions such as Fort Monroe, NASA’s Langley Research Center, and the Virginia Air and Space Center add to the splendor of the university campus.
Department of Aviation
In the Science and Technology building, the university has a laboratory with airplane simulators for the use of students and teachers. On these devices, students can train to obtain an Instrument (IFR) or Instrument Instructor rating.
For its Air Traffic Control program, the university also has laboratories that emulate simulated radar and tower control environments.
Laboratories and Facilities of the Department of Aviation (Hampton University)
FAA Testing Laboratory
The Department of Aviation at Hampton University is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to administer the FAA’s computerized written tests through its testing laboratory. This allows students to complete their required computerized FAA exams on campus.
Our contribution to aviation
This Feelthere ATC simulation software incursion in the formal educational processes in the training of future Air Traffic Controllers is a sample of the degree of reliability of our developments and the contribution that we can offer in terms of procedures and operational safety. It is our goal from now on to reach more institutions and provide our valuable contribution in post to train more and better professionals prepared for the challenges of the aviation industry.
