TRI/TRE

A TRI/TRE is not competant to operate a JAA level D sim until they have completed the relevant training course.They then become a SFI/SFE.I am an SFI training on JAA level D simulator.

I'm sorry. There is no course required or necessary to operate a specific sim as a TRI or SFI. (I am surprised no TRE/TRI has challenged your comment!)

Seems to be some concern....

If you are concerned, why not just book a course with an existing Flight Safety facility, purchase travel and attend? Nice to have local training but this training is available elsewhere.

Level D sim in SA!

About time! The 43 advanced sausage factory has had the upper hand for too many years at OTT prices. to be given the right to give 1900 ratings on that piece of **** BE20 sim with NOTHING working on it and BE20 power settings and characteristics is beyond me. Somone in the CAA mast have a good bank account statement by now for that piece of crap to be certified in the first place.

The fact that FSI saw potential here in **** hole SA to put a sim here (D sim) means

A. there is money to be made

B. We need training cos we are all ****!

C. SA has a rep for being the best in Africa and needs to continue in this vane regardless of cost.

I go with A and C

Let me give you people some advice.

Just because it is expensive does not mean the training is the best. If you want the most cost effective and the best training go to FSI, in the USA. The money you will save will more than cover your air tickets, hire car etc., with money left over.

FSI has a setup at Paris. That is expensive and the worst training and the worst sim instructor I have ever Had (one even tried to steal my job). They went out of their way to complicate things.

I will never ever set foot on their premises again and instructed the pilots I am responsible for, never to go there. They all go to the US for their training.
