Having difficulty contacting the Trident Sim operator at Biggin Hill. Does anyone know if anything similar is available elsewhere?

The next best sim IMHO if the Trident is still down is the B727 sim down at European @ BOH.

There's one here which might be useful -

Quite cheap, too.

I did some research on this a while back as I was Biggin based and thought I might need it.

These are some notes that I put together. I've never used the sim myself or even tried these numbers but this is how it was passed onto me. I've heard only good things about it and is just what you need to brush up your hand flying skills.

Also had 01883 652109

They are probably for the same place but the last one was a note that is about 6years old!

Good luck.

can't stress enough how important it is to get some practice before showing up for that sim check that might be the only chance you get for a long, long time....

bloke I used is Dan Brownie, ex Biggin Trident, now using the Bournemouth 727 and possibly Tristar sims. Rate on the 727 is approx 140 per hour per crew of two, without motion (you don't really need it) inc Dan's time.

Dan's mobile 07947 007569. Text is best for initial contact as he flies long haul and is away a lot. Also, cos it's a fair way away, be flexible on your dates (ie don't leave it to the last minute) cos he needs a few people at a time to go down there to make it worthwhile.

cheers
