About

Hi, I’m Thomas, founder and mastermind behind Awesome Skies – Interactive Courseware. I spent almost 20 years developing flight training devices and full flight simulators to the highest standards, replicating all the finest details of their real counterparts. While the level of immersion is crucial for certain training tasks, I realized that highest fidelity is surely not needed for every kind of training. Did you ever wonder, why full flight simulators sometimes do not move for hours?

Can you imagine exploring systems and procedures at your own pace – no ticking clock, no instructor waiting, no fixed schedule?
Arriving for practical training with a clear mental picture of what to expect.
That’s the goal.

Classroom training is powerful – but it’s fixed in time and space. For globally operating crews, that’s a logistical and financial challenge. Instructors should spend their time teaching – not building presentations from scratch or going through the basics. Better prepared students mean more time for the good stuff. In the classroom and in the device. There is a better way.

My vision for Awesome Skies is to become the go-to partner for interactive system demonstration and eLearning content — web-based, tailored, built to last. Closing the gap between conventional classroom training and costly training devices. Building strong partnerships with instructors and training providers to create training that is engaging, flexible and genuinely effective.

Let’s soar high together and keep our skies safe and awesome.
