I do not really like flying. But I have to fly and do pretty (much) frequently. I like long flights but short flights (!), Always at takeoff and landing worries me makes me very happy because obviously, I'm on arrival.
In between, depending on the length of the flight, a movie, a playlist
(Music FLY) created specifically to blow me, a glass of Chardonnay or
the accumulated fatigue make me entertain the truth, unless there is
turbulence-and yes, Hay I can always say that, now, to enjoy flying.
How did this insecurity to fly?
Well, I would not know what to say, I think he never liked me too catch
planes (and note that aviation I love), but as I always had to do ...
Then, after a lightning strike on the plane landing in Costa Rica,
experience severe turbulence over the Atlantic, a takeoff te-rri-ble
returning to Barcelona from Amsterdam (the kind where people scream and
crosses himself, the horror) and the occasional anecdote (I will not
mention media pollution to which we have submitted in 2014), I did come
back, if not more fearful, insecure yes (more than 25% of the population traveling by plane has some kind of fear of flying phobia and beyond 5%).
So just over a month ago I decided to join one of the courses to
overcome fear of flying there and I opted for the Air Europa
(www.perdiendoelmiedoavolar.com) that is run by one of his commanders, Alfonso de Bertodano
psychologist and full #aerotrastornado (you only need to follow your
Twitter account,alf_bertodano), who previously had the opportunity to
meet in an interview about phobias and fears for another half (and in the interview surfaced mine). He encouraged me to do the course and I did.
You may be wondering if these courses really work. If you can barely 48h deter years of panic, if possible (re) learn a behavior ... Yes, they work.
I guess there are not two equal fears, so that is why I guess my answer
is not extended to everyone, but I have worked for me for the simple
fact that I have achieved my objective and I have to spend so many hours in the air at least enjoy them. And man, obviously cane rather be with my friends, but I can assure you as restless as before. It goes without saying that you should put a lot of you, learn to manage your anxiety and be aware that "the way we think affects the way that I feel." As in life itself, go.
The course consists of teaching a basic knowledge of aviation (did you
know that a plane just need speed + air + wings to fly?) And some psychological techniques for the control and reduction of anxiety to a level that makes flying possible in many cases coming to nothing.
For this, a team with pilots, psychologists, maintenance technicians,
flight attendants and air traffic controllers accompanies you during the
days of the course, you will realize what their work, demystify, security measures speak, etc., something essential for those who are not very familiar with aviation.
I freaked out when I heard that people come to these courses that maybe
has not flown in 10 years or who has given up a career by not fly. And now hallucinate even more when I see them flying.

Bertodano is very clear when advising someone how to manage her panic to fly, "it is important to remove all the anxiety added to the flight. Avoid
stressful work days before the conflict and not get in a rush to the
airport to board last when the runway is now empty and, above all,
notify the cabin crew at the entrance of the aircraft. They know how to help and be more aware of their status and needs. "
