The important stuff is all the same. The software can be changed, that’s the beauty of a simulator.
I have never flown a 737. Just have had the joy of jump seating in them. What I was considering earlier was the difficulty and possible complications of changing the software in a NG sim to mimic a MAX. Also, would the FAA would sign off on it?
It may not be as simple as just uploading a new software package.
