Are there any NZFF members interested in becoming a temporary co-pilot in a full motion 737 airline simulator???? I am getting the urge to try these simulators again, so have been looking around to see what is still possible, given all the crazy security restrictions now.

Czech Airlines are offering their 737 full motion simulator for about 600 euros an hour plus tax

And Lufthansa training are still offering their large collection of simulators for hire

The last ones that I tried were with LH in Frankfurt (747 400). So if any NZFF members are also interested, then perhaps we can join together for a longer flight experience. When I tried with AirNZ, AVSEC put a stop to it on 'security grounds', but overseas, it is still possible to do this.

smooth landings.

Hang on I have a spare $10000 for the airfare, accomodation, transfers, and sim co-pilot ride somewhere around here....
Oh wait up, that was a dream I had last night.

Given your photos are from every corner of the Earth on a weekly basis, you seem to be living a bit of an unreal dream to me. smile.gif Half of us in here probably fly sims because we can't afford to fly the real thing. Let alone a sim in Europe. Just sayin! biggrin.gif
Kind regards
