And last but not least, if someone would be intrerested in sharing a sim, please let me know. I need to do it before june this year..

Qantas hire out their sim in Sydney for sim prep, but with a name like yours I don't think you're from down this neck of the woods.

The sim profile will be sent out to you from Cathay and apparently is different for DEFO DESO.

The sim is a must do if you are serious about a job. When I did my sim prep i did it by myself as I couldn't find a partner. The instructor jumped in the empty seat and did all the Pilot Non Flying roles.

Good luck

Hi Sgnr de L'Atlantique,

I am very pleased to hear from you, by the way congratulations for passing your first interview with CX!
I am exactly in the same stage as you, just need a mate to share a B747 Sim. Seems like you are the right one. I have made some research and I found a B747 400 sim without motion in UK. If you are interested please do contact me, I am planning to go at mid of may. Take care!
Cheers,

max motoring

Looking for a B747-200 sim near FRA? Lufthansa have one at thier training centre. Have no idea what it would cost to rent, but I do know it's only working about 12hrs a day at the moment.

I thought the sim ride was in a -200?

Some are on the 200, some 400. Luck of the draw.

I understand that for rapid command its definitely the classic 747 sim.
