737 Sim

A good place to fly a full motion 737 Sim is at Oxford aviation training. Its a Frasca sim but very realistic. It has Efis and excellent instructors to go with it. I think its about £400 and hour or £200 if going in with someone else. Visit www.oxfordaviation.net. Best of luck!

Thumbs up

I used the OAT sim before I went for a recent sim ride.

It was really helpful. The instructors were really good and have a good knowledge of the airline sim ride expectations.

They also have many airline sim ride profiles so you may have a chance to get a head start on the other hopefuls.

I passed my sim ride and am now flying the 737 for one of the majors in the UK

Ali1, you might want to try Iago Solutions. Many of the airlines use them to source sim time at all ours of the day and night. They have access to most of the sims accross the country and a whole host of 'Airline' instructors many of whom are line instructors. It is by no means the cheapest option, but in the long term ie. the rest of your aviation career, it will be a relatively minor expense. Good luck

It seems very expensive for the OAT sim, given the fact it is not a "real" FFS level D sim, for your information I recently paid £ 153/hour shared for a FFS at SASFA thru www.danfly.net for my 737 typerating.. so shop around..

Here is a few that may be able to help.

Sim Partner

I need a sim partner to share one or maybe 2 Two Hr Slots on B737-300 anyone interested. Gotta do it last week in Aug or first week in Sept.

Via the Company Iago £850 for 2hrs at LHR, provisionally Mon 29th Aug at approx 1000 would be good. Seems a lot of cash but I'm desperate and time is short and its the sim that gets the job.

Off on Hol. till 22nd Aug. so call my mob. if interested - 07880 725035.

Cheers.

if you want to save $$$$ book through Iago on a 737-300 sim at Gecat Gatwick at unsociable hours. should cost around £600 max for 2 hours.Dont forget to book yourself a reputable sim instructor.
