Anybody know any good US 737 sim schools for type rating /ATP practical test ?

Morning folks ,

I have a UK JAA ATPL and loads of P1 time on 737s ( currently NGs ) and need to acquire a FAA ATP with 737 TRating.
Can anybody recommend a SIM training establishment in the USA where I can do the joint ATP / Type rating Practical test without doing the whole type-rating course ?

Much obliged.

I just completed my 737 type at Higher Power Aviation in Fort Worth, Tx. They are a very good establishment. The link to them is www.jetcrew.com

I Second the opinion for www.jetcrew.com. They are good people with a lot of experience. I have several buddies there and they will not disappoint.

Pan Am Academy in Miami has a 737 type with the ground school home study course with a really competitive price. You can get everything done in one shot. ATP and type.

Thanks again

Thanks again Gents.
The Jetcrew/HPA option appears the best as it offers NG/BBJ simulators whereas Panamacademy does not.

Take care up there

Panam ?

Thanks Mike737
Just that there is no mention whatsoever of NG on Panams website.
Will email them anyway.

NG

I figure that I might be able to do less simulator sessions on my current type than on the efis which I have not flown for over a year . Just saving on one session would make it financially sensible.
