The Complete CAD Software for Airside Design, Planning, and Operations
AeroTURN Pro is a dynamic and intuitive software that revolutionizes the way airport gate layouts are designed. With its advanced features and capabilities, AeroTURN Pro is the top choice among airport engineers, designers, and consultants worldwide.

Technological breakthrough in gate design
AeroTURN Pro introduces new support for multiple boarding bridges and lead-in lines, allowing users to perform and test complex docking scenarios for maximum efficiency at each gate. Designing flexible stands that can accommodate various aircraft classes or large, multi-deck aircraft has never been easier.

Get onboard with one solution
Unlike other software solutions on the market, AeroTURN Pro is a complete package that doesn't require any costly additional modules. It is the one and only software you need for designing and planning airside expansion, upgrade, and rejuvenation projects. AeroTURN Pro includes aircraft and passenger boarding bridge libraries, making it the ultimate tool for professionals in the industry.
