I used European and the 727-200 in 2008. Our "classroom" training was a joke, my partner spoke virtually no English, and we were basically given the simulator. In addition to the incredibly vague, half-assed instruction, we flew an additional 10-15 hours free of charge. Course was fine for general handling, but the MCC aspect was near criminal for lack of focus, cohesion, and purpose. CONCLUSION: It is very little about the simulator, and the instruction is MUCH MUCH more important.
