B747 Classic SIM ?
 

Hello guys,
Does anybody know a still active B747 Classic -200/300 SIM somewhere? If even possible FFS Level D?
So far the only SIM I found was in MIA with PanAm ATO.
Appreciate any info's,
cheers

Try Caerdav at St Athan, UK. www.caerdav.com

Dated 2005 ( Kingston upon Thames of course )
"The Boeing 747 fixed-based simulator ........... was purchased from British Airways"

I have no more info but remember it being publicised.

Just for interest:

I believe that's an ex BA -400 FFS

Caerdav is an ex SAA 747-400. Soon to be back running after the shut-down. Level CG

Coastal Pacific Aviation , Abbotsford, BC. Canada has an ex Air Canada B747-200

There used to be a 747-200 sim at European Aviation In Bournemouth. They used to rent it out, not sure if that’s still the case.

Used to be one at Quadrant System in Burgess Hill, West Sussex:

Quadrant Systems Ltd.

Acquisition of A320 Full Flight Simulator - Quadrant Systems Ltd. << News article relating to it

Back in 2014 when I was last there, doubt it's there now but might have suggestions on where it went.

Regardless of where it's located, remember it has to be approved for training, be it landing currency or a full recurrent before it can be used. Each regulatory body needs to sign off and that is pretty expensive for a training organization to have done unless they are really using it a lot.

Went to Caerdav. Now in a Museum being used to help restore the cockpit of G-BDXH, the 'Volcanic Ash' aircraft

The Quadrant sim was taken out of service a couple of years ago. As the last crew walked out the engineers moved in and a week later it was gone.

Wow, I'm surprised Pan Am still has a B-742 sim in MIA. Wonder if they have the Air Force One training contract?

Pan Am kept a 707 sim running back in the airline days after they had parked their own 707's. The 89th at Andrews and other operators did training on it.

I can remember seeing Terri Jones, the 25 year-old fitness model, in the Pan Am 747 sim in 1987. She was getting a type rating for a publicity stunt around the world trip funded by her 60 year-old husband Arthur Jones, inventor of the Nautilus exercise machine. United had earlier refused to sign her off in Denver. After the predictable divorce (she was wife number five for Arthur) the couple's Jumbolair estate near Ocala, Florida was sold to John Travolta.

Atlas has an active -200 sim in MIA, level C.

I do not know if they rent it out.

Looks like they advertise training in it.

Training Courses - Atlas Training Center

Only a few years ago whilst I was at Pan Am Miami the B707 sim was still in use for mainly South American operators.
