The second post in this thread:
http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=220877
contains a link to details on the requirements for JAR STD 1A level A,B,C and D 'simulators'. There's a summary table on page 12.

For the FAA version, you should be able to go to www.faa.gov, go to the current list of advisory circulars and check out AC 120-40B:
http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory...A?OpenDocument
which is the FAAs guidance for sim qualification. The rules are fairly similar, though, as you'd expect.

And you can go to the FAA's National Simulator Program Home page http://www.faa.gov/safety/programs_i..._aviation/nsp/
They have links to Advisory Circulars, Guidance Bulletins, FAQs, and some information on the qualification process for flight simulation training devices.
