Biz jet sims are the most expensive. I paid for my interview prep sim in an Atlas 747-200 sim and it was $550 with instructor per hour. That 767 sim is nowhere near that much. I believe Alteon charges roughly $20K for the 757/767 type and that includes ground training, manuals, and 36 hours in the sim.

I was going to get this internship with spirit, but my buddy got it instead (because he didn't have to do an interview with the mean base manager unlike me lol) and he actually hated it and left. anyhoo... he got on the airbus sim... what a lucky bastid

I know a lot of DL’s Sky Team partners use their SIM but I highly doubt they are that much. When I was there I was told the SIM operate nearly 24 hours a day. At 5k you’d think DL would get out of the airline business and into the sim business.

Naturally the jet sim is going to be more expensive than a prop sim - they burn more fuel
