Finnair

Edit: Checked Finnair Flight Acedemy and it looks like the Beech training is no longer directly under Finnair but with Finnish Aviation Academy. Sim is still there though and available for dry and wetlease.

If you can afford the trip to North America I would suggest FlightSafety New York or Toronto. New York writes FSI's program but Toronto has the better instructors/schedules. At least, it did more years ago than I care to admit.

Seattle has a 1900 sim too, but it's got a couple bugs in it that are flat out annoying and I'm not sure if they are teaching in it yet or simply wet leasing it.

However, out of the three Seattle is the FAR better city...and I say that being a Toronto boy.

I note you have SA as a point of origin. Simuflight and 43 offer the course. Both use the Level D sim at Flight Saftey's Johannesburg facility. That's not answering your EASA question, but of you have the right to live and work in SA and are keen for B1900 gig given that a lot of B1900s operate on the SA register doing an licence conversion followed by a rating might be a cheaper / more lucrative option especially with a favourable exchange rate factored in.
