Simcorp flight training
Hi guys
Does anyone know anything about simcorp in the states?
They offer all type ratings, also they have contracts with outside companies for students to work and build 500hrs as a first officer, student pays for this of course.
Any bit of information on them would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

SimCorp
Hi, I would love some information on them aswell. Their prices for the A320 Type Rating and 500 hours seem too good to be true....
The only thing i know about them is that they are a new organisation and their MD/Boss is an Egyptian. I spoke to one of their secretaries a few days ago and she said that one their employees was in the process of negotiating line training programs.

Hi
Better late than never.
I have just attended Simcorp Flight Training, and I have no complaints.
Everything is run very proffesionel. The administration and instruction is excellent, and I feel that I got what I came for.. plus a few extra tricks.
I finished in july, and we are about to get send out to an airline I wont mention here. They are also very active, in trying to get you a job WITHOUT you having to pay for the hours..
Definitely very good value for the money.. But I bet you allready have that feeling, if you have been in contact with them.

Simcorp Flight Training
I have attended the A320 TR Course at Simcorp earlier this year. The decision was a bit of a gamble initially since I have been around long enough to know better than wire money to a new place in Florida up front.
Looking back now, I have made the right decision for me. The training was professional and up to expectations. Ground training took place in Orlando, Sim training in Miami.
I liked that candidates are required to study the FCOMs before hitting class. That saved a lot of time during the course. Questions during this preparation phase were answered by an instructor via Skype. Of course, I went through all systems, etc. again in class but it is then more of a refresher since many things will already be familiar. This way, I had more brain cells left to memorize other stuff, expenses for a hotel and downtime from a job are less.
Administration, instructors, and management were top notch. No complains here whatsoever. Customer service at its best and no hollow promises.
The permanent FAA license arrived approx. 2 months after the check ride. Thanks to the training documentation I received at Simcorp it took less than a month to add it on a CASA ATPL from there.
I cannot say much much about the time building aspect since I haven’t gotten that far yet. However, I was asked by a major carrier to submit an application through an arrangement by Simcorp.
So… yes, I got what I paid for (and actually more than that )… yes, it was fun training there and… yes I would train there again/would recommend them to others.

Have you done the SimCorp line training yet?
Good morning,
I have done a type rating with Simcorp in September and i'd like to know if you went through their complete program. How long do you need to wait before to fly the 500 hours.
Regards

A320 TR-Internship-SimCorp
Where do you get your info? 1 -2 years?! Talked to SimCorp Friday, once TR is complete it takes about 3 months for security clearance, transfer of paper work to carrier, etc. before receiving an employment agreement from the carrier. Check out hgcfly.com After building TT to 300 you're eligible for SO full pay, FO & Captain programs also available.

The 1000 hours TT, or 500 Multi, or TR + 100 hours on type, do still apply, these are India's DGCA requirements to convert a foreign licence, so unless there is a regulatory change (which it is not likely in the near future), these are the minimum requirements to fly commercially in India.
Regarding other programs, SimCorp doesn't publicise any other, so apparently they don't have any other internship program.
Regards.
