Link trainer, old school!!!

Does any school still use the Link trainer?

Is so, how much/hr?

I find they are really cool... Old School! And it feels pretty real to me. I think they would be great for basic instrument where the student does not understand attitude & movement.

We have a fully operational one; I've put in some time in it. The thing should be put away in a museum
I know there's better out there.

Thanks

Is it dark blue with yellow tail surfaces, just like they used to be?

it's one of the ones from the 60'

GAT-1B (I think)

Works great...

I've been looking on the net and all the ones that I've seen are in museums...

i remember trying to hold my lunch in in one of those once upon a time. the motion was something akin to sitting in a spinning bucket flopping around on top of a broom stick
