MEDIA RELEASE

Rex is pleased to announce its Boeing 737NG Full Flight Simulator (FFS) has received certification from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and is now ready for use.

The Level D FFS can be configured for 737-700 & 737-800 variants and is approved for Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT).

The Rex FFS was originally housed at Ansett Aviation Training (AAT) facilities in Brisbane. When the term expired in 2023, AAT refused to extend the term and gave Rex the option of either selling the simulator to AAT or removing the simulator. Rex chose not to give in to coercion and so began construction of its own purpose built simulator centre next to Rex Head Office at Mascot, Sydney.
