The New York Times today claimed that the upcoming Avatar land to be built in Disney's Animal Kingdom will include a ride that simulates flight.  This is the first public report of any remotely firm details on any of the actual rides that may be part of the land.

Apparently referencing comments made by Avatar creator James Cameron, the New York Times says, "Avatar construction is set to begin next year and open in 2015. Design details are secret, but James Cameron, who directed “Avatar” and is working on two sequels, has said part of the project will include a ride that simulates flight. "
