Alteon Training has

Queensland, Australia. This is the company's first full-flight
simulator "Down-Under" in Australia.
The Brisbane Training Centre is one of several facilities

Africa and the Americas.
"We are pleased to add the Brisbane centre to the Alteon network

of providing high quality training closer to the customer's
operations, we are now in position to fully support our partner
Virgin Blue and other customers in the region," said Bill Gardner,
Regional Vice President for Asia-Pacific.
Alteon has a total of thirteen Boeing 737-700/-800 full flight
simulators in its worldwide simulator fleet. A second such
simulator is being installed in the Brisbane centre and is expected
to be ready for training shortly.
