With B737NG on your FAA ATP you should be able to do the test on a 737 classic simulator in NZ. It is all the same type rating. I believe the old Air NZ device is now owned by Air Chathams. Someone else should know its status.
Again, great info. Yes, I want the NZ ATPL. If I could use the 737 sim, that would be the airplane that I am most comfortable with. I will look up Air Chathams. Thanks.
