I'm currently looking at integrated courses and trying to work out the pros and cons of what's on offer. Noticed that Oxford do the MCC and JOC on a snazzy new 6 axis 737-400 sim whereas FTE use an older Hawker 800 3 axis. However, in total FTE offer more sim time (about 10hrs more). Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on whats more important?

The quality of instruction is the most important thing.

All things being equal I imagine that more hours of training would be more useful than more axis of motion.

I did mine at BCFT on the European Airlines Tristar Sim the experience was fantastic, steep learning curve, they got the sessions required complete, a good LOFT sector and some rawdata flying so no complaints there. You got a lot JOC in that so didnt feel the need to spend extra.

It was about £400 more than your generic FNPT11 sim but well worth it. Instruction good to
