You might be surprised by
how many people have a fear of
flying. I've read that anywhere up to
60 million people experience some degree of
fear upon boarding a plane. For many it
develops later in life as we realize how
precious life is and that we are all mortal
beings. For some it's uncomfortable
feeling out of control. Many of them
hide it well, others are much more vocal about
it. Still others are terrified enough to stay
on the ground ALL the time.
I am a recovering
"fearful flyer". I say
recovering because I do occasionally slip into
moments of sheer terror, but I'm gradually
working toward being able to fly without any
fear at all.
A common question by fearful
flyers is, "How safe is airplane
travel?" I hope you'll find that it's
a very safe method of travel, safer than cars,
bikes, motorcycles and boats put
together.
The information on this site
is free. I'm not trying to sell you anything.
The purpose is to lead you to all the helpful
resources that are available on the internet
for fearful flyers.
Use this site to find
information about online fear of
flying courses,
flying
videos, airplane
pictures that you can use as
desktop backgrounds and many helpful
fear
of flying articles to help you
deal with your flying fears and overcome
them.
Anxiety over an upcoming
flight is a very common problem. You need to
tackle your anxiety and stress head on. This
site will point you to a growing list of
anxiety and stress relief tips and tricks, as
well as expert articles about how to deal with
that anxiety. I have also reviewed several
fear of
flying books and included links if
you're interested in reading them yourself. I
carry my favorite books with me on each flight
for additional information and
comfort.
If you're interested in
reading my story it is
available here.
