CO simulators in Houston

Besides the 737/300 Simulator in Houston, what other simulators does Continental have there?

Thanks

They have at least 5 or 6 sims which are visible through glass windows from JFK blvd. I'd assume besides the 737 sims, they have a 757/767, 777, and maybe an old MD80 they haven't gotten rid of yet.

B737-300 EFIS, B737-300 round dial, B757/767, B777, MD-80, and DC-10. At least I think the DC-10 is still there. The MD-80 is being used for interviews, I believe. They also have fixed-base FTDs for some of the aircraft. I got my high-altitude endorsement after doing an rapid decompresion/emergency descent in the B737-500 FTD at the CAL training center.

Where is the ERJ simulator at?

In the Continental Express Training Center across the parking lot. We also use Flight Safety HOU as well as FLL I believe. I did my sim training out of Houston Hobby at FSI.

We have three level D sims at ExpressJet's training center.

There are 3 of ERJ sims as well as 2 FTD's and a cabin trainer in the Expressjet training center, which is about 100 yards behind the continental training center.

In addition, Flight Safety at Hobby Airport in Houston has 4 ERJ sims.
