Does anyone know what became of the Learjet 45 simulator built by Flight Safety International (FSI) that was located in Maroochydore?

Is it similar to Qantas using the HS125 back in the 70's
SM,
In short, no.
The two main purposes were:
(1) Line pilots getting "factored hours" to meet promotional criteria, factored hours were a contrivance to try and circumvent date based seniority, and;
(2) License renewals for S/Os, because it was cheaper than a B707 per hour, because the simulators were not good enough, although those QF sims. were a damned sight better than some of the sims. CASA approves these days.
Tootle pip!!

Last I heard the lear sims were in storage in a nearby unit. PM me if you want more info.

One sim possibly still stored, the better (newer) one was sold as a working unit.

Was a nice little earner for McCully and his cronies.
Set up when SQ was cutting edge. A long time ago!
