This is from the latest Code a Phone......

The MSP Training Center now contains cabin trainers for every aircraft in the Delta fleet and will provide one-stop shopping per se for crew training in MSP. Flight training in MSP will continue to be classroom and simulator instruction for pilots flying pre-merger Northwest aircraft such as the DC-9, A320/319, 757-200/-300 series, A330 - with an additional A330 simulator coming in the next few months, and 747-400.


Now I do NOT interpret that as getting another -400 sim. I think the author was just finishing the sentence and meant that the Minneapolis Training Center would continue to be the location of 747-400 training, as it is for the A319/320/330, DC-9, etc. JMO.
