ATTENTION, PILOTS: LEARN TO PREVENT RUNWAY INCURSIONS!
Getting Around On The Ground™ 3.0 is the only interactive, multimedia tool for pilots that teaches the types of airport markings, signage, and lighting. It also goes beyond simple technical knowledge by outlining hazards, safety tips, and procedures that will help keep you aware, knowledgeable, and safe on the ground.

By completing all the content and taking the Final Exam, you can qualify to obtain credit for the FAA WINGS program. The WINGS program is a continuing education program for pilots, sponsored by the FAA. You'll not only learn to be a safer pilot on the airport surface—you'll also be able to prove your commitment to flight safety with your WINGS account. (Aviation Tutorials is a WINGS Training Provider.)

As a bonus, you're entitled to a download of Airport Simulator (for Windows or Mac), a 3-D airport taxi simulator, whereby you interact with Air Traffic Control in 40 different scenarios! Practice real-time taxi operations, while avoiding runway incursions. Set day/night/dusk, reduce the visibility, and more. This download is available for Windows or Mac, but it not available on iPad at this time.
