BlueEagle,
Past decisions always come back to haunt people, the Saudi MD90s are unique with a glass cockpit similiar to the MD11, there are only 3 suitable simulators in the world, Long Beach and Thales UK (2). The Thales simulators will soon be dispatched to the ME.
Newswatcher,
The article makes it sound as if the training center is a result of the visa problem, it is actually a long overdue facility that is under constuction with 4 simulators almost ready in Thales.
