The additional sims are coming from CAE in Canada somewhere.
FAA/Boeing have already said a workaround using NG sims will be allowed. With so few Max sims and so many airlines with parked planes it’s not feasible to tell some airlines “tough ****....go buy a MAX sim”.
The only difference is the display. Sim is only going to be required to train MCAS/trim runaway. You can do that in any model.
