You might look at Bristol Flight Centre too. I renewed mine there after a lapse of 20 years on type.

They were most helpful and the training is done on a live aircraft - not a sim.

If you getting the rating before a job find out what type of avionics any prospective employer has. If its pro line 21 you really should do your type rating on this. It's almost a different aircraft.
There are two of these sims. Lufttransport in Norway and flight safety Wichita.

Definitely consider Bristol Flying Centre, as already mentioned.
For a rather simple (and very nice) twin turboprop like the B200, doing the Type Rating/Class Rating on the actual aircraft is not a bad idea in my opinion. It gives you some hands on experience right away and even tough it may be faster that one you've flown before - its still not a complicated jet experience.

Good luck with it

Flight Safety in Farnborough. Superb course - excellent facilities and some of the best instructors I have encountered. Everyone incredibly helpful and friendly, everything provided for comfort. Very professional and enjoyable.

Of course in the sim you get to practice things that could not possibly be tried on the aircraft: V1 cut, windsheer, LVPs and every failure you can think of. It takes about two hours to get airborne first trip with all the failures they can give you! I felt I knew the systems far better than I could have by training on the aircraft.

Hello,
I'm just coming from Thessaloniki where I attended the Beech C90B Type Rating at AEOLUS Aviation Academy, it's an FTO Helenic CAA approved for Beech BE90/99/100/200 Type Rating.
The Type rating is covered over 30 hours ground school (3.1/2 days) which is provided by TRE including theoritical question bank test, then followed by 3 days of Flight training and Skill Test (6 hours Flight Training + 2 hours LST).
Flight training is provided also by TRE acting as TRI then the skill test is attended by the first TRE. Both are very experienced.
All flight training is provided on a Beech C90B which is dry leased to Air Thessaloniki, a well good maintained aircraft. Which the annual revision is done in germany.
By providing to the Belgian CAA the: FTO approval papers for FTO and for Type Rating and also JAR forms of skill test and IR renew check I get the endorsement at Belgian CAA office in 15 minutes.
For contact with them don't hesitate to contact me in private.
Fly Safe
