737 Simulator
There are now many 737 Simulators available to the public around the UK, some are very good, and some are more basic, but they all have one thing in common, they’re fixed base- they don’t move.
JetEx offers something completely different - a true 6-axis full motion simulator, the only real motion 737 flight sim available in the UK outside an airline training centre, and at roughly half the hourly rate of those, we deliver a very comparable experience.
The 6-axis motion base offers a significant number of advantages over a fixed base simulator.
In addition to offering simulator experiences to the public, the JetEx 737 is in regular use by pilots who demand a level of performance that no “experience simulator” can deliver- in other words total realism.
So, if you’ve ever wondered what it's really like to fly a commercial jet, then come on over to JetEx, fasten your seatbelt and take-off into the exhilarating world of flight. Whether you're an aspiring pilot, an aviation enthusiast, or an aviation professional, JetEx delivers with a completely different class of machine offering you a level D experience at a fixed base simulator price.
737 Simulator Features
Real 737 Cockpit
Our flight simulator cockpit is taken from a real 737, so you get to experience the actual aircraft's controls, instruments, and layout. This provides a fully immersive experience for pilots, allowing them to familiarise themselves with the flightdeck they will encounter during airline training scenarios. The identical representation of real aircraft switches, control feel, identical dials, and displays enables trainees to practice their skills in a setting that very closely resembles the real aircraft.
The real cockpit also contributes to muscle memory development as pilots interact with the controls and systems and even seat adjustment in a simulated yet true-to-life environment. By using an actual 737 cockpit, trainees can hone their reflexes and responses to various scenarios they may encounter while operating a Boeing 737 aircraft.
Ready to fly?
We offer a whole range of flight simulator experiences that everyone can enjoy, whether you're a complete flying novice or an experienced pilot looking to get familiar with the 737.
737 Simulator Experiences
30 Minute Experience
For a taste of what it's like to fly a commercial 737 jet.
You'll get to taxi, take off, tour the skies and land at any airport in the world, all from the captain's seat.
60 Minute Experience
Want to try your hand at some tricky weather conditions? Or a few challenging approaches?
Our most-popular hour long experience will give you the time to feel a variety of real-world flying situations.
120 Minute Experience
Our two-hour flying experience gives you the chance to try your hand at some really challenging flights.
Fancy a stall recovery? Or zero visibility approach? Or perhaps see how you fair with an engine failure!
Your 737 Simulator Experience
When you strap into a real 737 simulator like the JetEx full flight sim, you will immediately notice that the fidelity is completely different to any "experience simulator". From the flight controls, to the crew seats, right down to the air conditioning vents, everything is real, not replicated.
All aircraft systems are simulated, with complex failure modes modelled, allowing in depth simulation training sessions for pilots to hone their skills, and incredibly immersive experience sessions for the public where anyone can try their hand flying in a real 737 aircraft cockpit.
The JetEx Difference
Experienced Instructors
Your friendly Boeing 737 simulator instructor will be very experienced in full motion operations, and is there to communicate their knowledge to you in a clear and very friendly way so you can relax and enjoy your session with us. If there are specific scenarios you’d like to try, or places you’d like to fly from, no problem, just let your instructor know and they will be happy to tailor the session to you.
If you’re an experienced virtual pilot, we can make the sessions more challenging, and if this is all new to you, we’ll just make it easy. Either way, time in our 737 simulator offers a fantastic insight into what happens behind the cockpit door, and flying it is simply great fun.
Used by 737 Pilots
Real world 737 pilots do regular simulator assessments called “license proficiency checks” or LPC’s as part of airline operations. These tests can be quite stressful as the sim instructors will introduce failures to monitor pilot performance and assess how well they handle difficult situations. We've helped many pilots prepare for LPC's and command tests.
Calm and focus must be maintained, this stems from confidence in performance, which in turn comes from experience provided in a simulator. As unexpected situations arise during simulated flights, learning to maintain composure enables pilots to think clearly and act decisively under pressure. By staying level-headed, pilots approach problems methodically without succumbing to panic- think of the “miracle on the Hudson”. Rehearsing scenarios in the JetEx 737 simulator builds confidence ahead of an LPC or other sim check.
Familiarity with the real aircraft cockpit allows pilots to absorb new information efficiently while navigating through complex flight scenarios. JetEx 737 simulator sessions help develop resilience in pilots, by preparing them for real-world challenges in a very realistic training environment.
Advanced Motion System
An integral feature of our Boeing 737 simulator is its advanced full motion system that replicates the sensations experienced during flight.
This system employs cutting-edge technology to simulate movements encountered during flight - take-offs, landings, turbulence, and other in-flight dynamics, all replicated with remarkable accuracy. As a result, trainee pilots are exposed to lifelike physical feedback that enhances their understanding of aircraft behaviour under different flight conditions.
The sophisticated motion system software not only adds realism but also aids in developing pilot proficiency by allowing them to experience and respond effectively to various flight conditions.
Cutting-Edge Visual Display Technology
Our Boeing 737 simulator uses cutting-edge collimated visual display technology developed by NASA.
This display system makes out-the-window visual image appear distant, adding enormously to the realism of the scene.
The collimated display in combination with state-of-the-art graphics rendering capabilities and high-definition screens result in visually stunning representations of landscapes, airports, weather conditions, and other environmental elements encountered during flights.
