The research on remote tower operation faces multiple challenges. Separate traffic flows are getting dependent, the design of the tower controller working places needs to be revised and new sensor technique must be tested. In accordance to this great bandwidth of design and adaption works a development and validation platform is of substantial need. Among the validation tools recommended by the European operational concept validation methodology, simulations play a crucial role. Within the present chapter a comprehensive simulation approach is discussed. This approach connects fast-time and human-in-the-loop simulation to determine traffic effects and the consequences for the air traffic controllers. Moreover, a transfer into the field using passive shadow mode tests is provided, replacing simulation components step by step with operational data.
