Angel B-707 Simulator

Dear Aviators. I did a sim on B-707 last year at the Panam Academy Miami. FRom Feb 1st this year this have de-commissioned the SIM. I believe there is another which exists in Las Vegas Panam Faculty. Could any 707 operator please guide me whether any sim is still functioning any where around the globe as there are a lot of aircraft still flying. Thank You

Actually, there are hardly any flying. It's almost all KC-135s now.

I think nowadays you would use the 707 for training rather than a simulator

The AWACS with several Air Forces are B707s, so there must be Sims for them.

American Airlines maintained a 707 simulator for contract training after they retired their 707s. It may still be available.

No, AA shut down their 707 sim several years ago. The pulled the plug on their 727 sim last year.

Indeed there must. Whether those sims are available to civilians is another matter.
