You may remember Kav Simulations from back in November 2023 who released their A320 Family of LCD displays. They are back with a new panel that is ideal for your desk, officer, home or even kitchen wall – a new LED Airport Display.
This is a new type of product that shows dynamic air traffic at five different airports: London Heathrow (EGLL), Innsbruck (LOWI), Amsterdam Schiphol (EHAM), Munich (EDDM), and Las Vegas (KLAS). The LED Airport display works on conjunction with the Universal Control Board to then take real-world traffic data or virtual air traffic data and then display them on your LED Airport Display.
You will be able to see movement at those five airports via LED lighting, including on the runway, taxiways and also aircraft stands. More airports are due to launch in the future, along with an optional subscription service which will add “extra features.”
“We are really excited to be able to bring these fantastic products to you. We have worked very hard
to get them just right and make the user experience easy and pleasant. We believe that these boards
will bring a fascinating new level to your desk, office, home, or even cockpit,” James Kavanagh, Director, said. “The integration with both the real world and the virtual world is something we’re really proud of, and it’s great fun to watch yourself move around the airport too. We plan to bring many more different airports to the lineup in the future, and with free server access for life, you’ll always be able to use the product. We will be offering a subscription service for those who want extra features, but the subscription will never be a mandatory part of the product.”
The Universal Control Board price is $130.00 USD, with the LED Airport Displays starting at $175.00 USD.
Pre-orders for the LED Airport Displays and Universal Control Boards are now live, with shipping due in 4-6 weeks. If you do pick up one, you can save 10% on your order by using code LED-PREORDER-10 at the checkout.
