I understand that the people running the Ansett Flight Simulator division at Garden drive, Tullamarine, are in the process of setting up endorsement courses and expect CASA approval within a week or so. The number to phone is (03)-9339-5902 - ask for the simulator manager or his assistant. Not sure of the names.
Hope that helps.

Endorsing Virgins sounds like a bit of a frustrating job really!

foo
Just do a search in d&g.
It shouln't be that hard to find.
Last info was $19.5k and 4 weeks in ML if you have a job offer,
or US$12.5k and about 6 weeks, also in ML.
Good luck.

Question

Why would the cost and the length of the course differ whether you had a job or not? A course is a course is a course isn't it?

Implied , but not stated, was two different organizations offering the endorsement in Aus, both on the ex- Ansett sim.
One is under the Virgin licence and hence can only be for people who will be employed there.
The other is for anyone who wishes to indulge in the process, by a different organization, whose time frame and cost varies from the former.
As I advised foo, do a search and all will be revealed with a little investigation, homework and a few phone calls.
Sorry if that is too wordy, perhaps my conciseness was too cryptic!
Cheers

PS off course of course
