Default which commuter airlines use Flight-Safety?

Which commuters use FSI? (just curious)

I used to fly for Express Jet, we went to FSI-Houston. Is that still the case.

I know there is a FSI at KLGA airport, primarly Turbo-prop sims there, correct???

RAH primarily uses STL. In the past they have used IAH and MCO, and even heard of people going to Paris and Montreal. They did use CAE in DEN for the CRJ program.

Cool, Paris sounds like fun, I'm sure it'd get expensive very very quickly....

I did some training at HOU, I remember getting the 1:00-5:00AM sim because the place was fully booked. I heard something like 3 or 4 airlines train there

CommutAir uses FSI in Seattle and Atlanta. Horizon uses Seattle as well I believe I saw when I was up there last.

Comair uses FSI in CVG. I think Pinnacle, Chataqua, Mesa, and Mesaba have used the sims in CVG as well.

9E uses FSI in MEM for the -200 stuff. When they get overloaded or break, its off to STL.
The -900 stuff has been done in STL but might be consolidated into MSP with the XJ stuff by now... I dont know.

ExpressJet used places other than their own training center only when they were cranking out 80 new hires a month. Usually it is done in house.

I also had the horrible HOU 2am-9am sim schedule.

The -200 in STL is a complete pile of junk. I can't believe that the fed's buy off on it.
