Written
by an airline pilot and a clinical psychologist, this combination
of practical explanation and self-help techniques is the definitive
guide to help nervous passengers overcome their fear of flying.
Lighthearted, unpatronising and informative.
The writers hope that this book
will help the many people who are apprehensive about flying. It
has been estimated that about one person in five falls into this
category: far more than care to admit it openly!
Sometimes unnecessary anxiety is caused by events about which
professional aircrew have become blasé. Pilots and Cabin
Crew may take for granted aspects of flights which are
mystifying and even alarming to less frequent flyers.
Part I of this book takes readers
through a typical flight, explaining in non-technical terms just
what is happening at any point in the
journey. This is followed by Part II, a 'Chamber of Horrors?'
section, which deals frankly with some of the aspects of flying
which may be a cause of worry......read more
