As far as I can remember if its FAA registered then you dont need a type rating but if its JAR(EASA), then its probably the TR/Class rating(essentially the same as a TR). I just check standards docs on CAA website and theres no mention of any approved training provider in UK so best to speak to the guys themselves at Tarbes who will keep you right. I think Simcom is FAA only stuff.
