Really need a pep talk about airplanes.

Well, as long as landings equal take offs, you should be fine.

WOOT congrats at being ok during your flight

But if you want to get over your fear do what I did.

My ex was learning to become a Pilot... His instructor wanted to come on one of the flights as I was scared of planes (I would shake & be quite stiff). It was just a small plane (Cezna 4 seater.. 2 front & 2 back, single propeller on the nose)... I learned SOOOOOOO much on that 1hr flight, & have NEVER been scared after that... I WAS scared on the Cezna, but I learned what the noises where, & the whys & hows, etc.

They have 30min go up with a Pilot classes. You have the chance to hold the stick/wheel if you want... Of you can just talk to the pilot the whole time, while they explain every single little thing to you.. Its about 50.00CDN for the 30 mins, but I HIGHLY recommend it.. BUT make sure you tell them why your going up, so they can set you up with a super understanding Pilot (that makes a big difference too).

I am just home from my 6th flight in two weeks.

I go through phases of hating flying and not hating flying. I seem to be in "not" right now.

I will take a center seat over an window (I prefer an aisle but sometimes...)

I do not want to see where I am going or what I am doing.

I always have TONS of reading material. And I read. Let the book take me somewhere else....

and next thing you know....I have reached my destination!
