The training has changed greatly over the years. Much more student centered with plenty of training going on versus the old "checking" mentality. The vast majority of the instructors are very good and want you to succed. Yes, we own two 747 simulators and one 777 sim all in our training center in YIP. Come prepared and willing to learn and you will do fine. Show up expecting to have your hand held thru training and you might things more of a Challenge. Good luck.
