Use of alternative simulators in Australia

ChoppaGirl,
A couple of years ago a CareFlight pilot told me they go to Melbourne and Norway twice a year for King Air SIM training and they never do engine failures in the aircraft. IIRC the reason for the different simulators is to bridge the gap between the old steam driven King Air and the modern glass cockpit version.

Based on the CareFlight example, to answer your question, I would think even if Conquest training in a King Air simulator was legal, that it would not be practical.
