As for me? I have no faith in the FAA or Boeing right now so I'm going to I assume they recommend the NG sim. Obviously I've been paying closer attention to this subject matter than you.
For the record, MCAS needs to be removed from the MAX and crews segregated for training and operational purposes.
I believe I read awhile back that SWA 1st MAX sim was to ne delivered last summer and be ready for training by November. Of course this was before all the MCAS issues started to be defined. I believe SWA is using a CAE device, and if anyone can bring this to closure, CAE would be my first choice.
