There's a guy restoring a link trainer in Urbana, Ohio at the Champaign Aviation Museum. I got to test it out a few weeks ago. I was impressed by how smooth it was, it really did feel disorienting in the same way flying on instruments in the clouds is.,(reply>), @taten007 I just recently became a flight instructor. Go out to a smaller local airport, and just go into the FBO and say you want a discovery flight. You'll get to fly around with an instructor for half an hour to an hour. If you love it, then talk to some people, figure out the best flight school for you, and go for it. It takes a lot of studying though, so be ready for that, and getting your private pilot certificate will run you abt 10 grand for flight fees alone, not counting ground time with your instructor and misc aviation supplies you'll have to buy (charts, study materials, etc). Just be sure to shop around for flight schools and talk to would be instructors, a bad instructor or school can and will absolutely crush your love of flying.,(reply>), @MaeLSTRoM1997 Not only that, but Urbana, IL is a merged city with Champaign IL, in Champaign county.... AND the Rantoul Air Force Base was only about 15 min north of Champaign-Urbana, IL..... Frasca International, a major commercial/military aircraft simulator company is also based here.... So it's all kinds of confusions.,(reply>), So there is city of Urbana in Champaign county ohio, and then there is the city Urbana in Champaign county Illinois, both of which are about two hours drive from Indianapolis? The US really needs a major update on names,(reply>), There's a coffee company in Cincinnati called Urbana. That nitro cold brew 😍,(reply>), I wonder if my dad worked with that particular one.  He was at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in the late 60's (I was even born on the base there!) and worked for the flight simulation department.
