Simulator Preparation Recommendations

Dear Forum,

Thank you for all of your helpful posts! Could you please recommend a good airline interview simulator prep service? I have been doing a lot of international flying with EFIS and think that I better brush up on steam gage reading before an interview soon. Thank you!

Why not pack along a lap top and microsoft flightsim2004 and fly the Baron around at the hotel? There's tons of airline specific prep available out there but we need to know the airline to help you out.

John Young at Purdue University has been doing preps in a 727-200 simulator. It is my understanding they have been getting a few UPS and/or FedEx interviewees through recently.

Thanks, any other ideas?

Thanks, BoilerUp! That sounds like a great way to prepare for a visit to Louisville.

I haven't used a home computer flight simulator recently, but I imagine that they have gotten better and would be a big help, WhiteCloud. Thanks.

Has anyone used another simulator prep service or facility for an interview? maybe Alteon (Boeing)?

Thanks!

Fly safe,
