The 737-EFIS is equipped with Smiths FMC.

The big Boeings 757+ have Honeywells.

Trium16, you are correct. The 737 has Smiths FMCs as it's only option.

Transair I think still sells the 737 FMC Video, one of a selection of type-rating videos, but it is pretty basic, and the second promised video on advanced FMC ops didn't materialize (I'm talking circa 2000 here, it may have been published since).

The (Printed) Bulfer 737 FMC guide is pretty good, and definitely worth a buy, but its not cheap, I think it used to cost 50 quid.

PS1.3 (www.aerowinx.com) is an excellent simulation of the 744, with a comprehensive Honeywell FMC simulation, that may help you.
