    I did the one down in Newcastle airstrip...bought it on a deal at the time. Very enjoyable although was just a c172 sim. Would like to try my hand at the B737 sim but suspect it would be far too advanced to enjoy as much

    You can fly a plane for the same price to be fair.

    Really recommend Atlantic Airventure in Shannon! They have the B737-800 there, real-life cockpit etc...

    Have a look here : http://atlanticairventure.com/b737-800ng-flight-simulator/
