I am sooo excited I just had to post upon my immediate return from Italy. I was petrified, and when I say petrified, I mean P E T R I F I E D to fly. I was
driving my family crazy with my worrying and imagination of our plane crashing. But after Capt. Tom's SOAR program I flew in the dark over water from
Philadelphia to Venice two weeks ago. My family was absolutely amazed, it was a miracle to me. During the flight the plane dropped a couple of feet and many
people were gasping but I did not worry at all, because I knew what it was. This even surprised me. Just a couple of days before I was ready not to go on the
trip because of my fear and there I was extremely calm, actually for the first time in my life enjoying a flight. I had to make three more flights throughout
my trip and enjoyed every one of them because I was educated in what to expect by the Miracle Worker Capt. Tom. Although I conquered my fear of flying I was
about to face my next biggest fear "heights". My darling husband booked our hotel in Taormina on a cliff 3,000 feet high. I am sure you could
imagine my expression as were driving higher and higher and higher and reached the hotel almost at the highest point. At first I would not get out of the car
and began to cry and was about to ruin my family's vacation at this beautiful hotel. When I used Capt. Tom's method on flying for heights. Again it
was a miracle how I, who could not drive over a bridge because of the fear of heights, got out of the car and stayed in this hotel facing Mt. Etna for three
days. Capt. Tom there are not enough words to express my gratitude to you for absolutely giving me a miracle and taken away the fears that I thought could
never be conquered.

Glad you had a great trip. I know it seems like a miracle, but what what has been developed connects with the way we are genetically wired up to be calmed.

Thank you Capt. Tom. The only problem I had was that my husband got upset that instead of our family and friends asking about our vacation first, they asked
how I did on the plane. Knowing how scared I was before doing your program they were amazed that I actually said I enjoyed the flight. On our journey we had
several tour guides and some asked about our flight. I mentioned to them how afraid I was and how much your program helped. I now will be e-mailing them your
site. I told them if it worked for me it can work for anyone. Thank you again for giving me a new life, one this is now free to fly instead of in fear to
fly.

Note from Capt. Tom I know everyone worries about weather, but pilots really do not worry about it. We simply - instead of worrying about it - completely prepare for it. Before going to the plane, we review the weather at the destination. If it is not 100% sure to be within legal limits when we arrive at the destination, we must specify an alternate airport in our planning documents, and load on plenty of fuel for going to the destination airport, and then if need be, diverting to the alternate airport. The legal limits are conservative. Even when weather is slightly outside the legal limits, any airline pilot could still land safely. You can rely on the captain never to land when the weather is not legal, and legality limits are reached prior to safety limits. If you are still anxious, call me and we can talk it over. I'm at 877 332-7359 from 10 AM until 7 PM Eastern time. For effective help, even if you are flying in a day or two, sign up now at www.fearofflying.com/fasttrack and call me when you finish Clip 9 so I can make sure you are all set. |

Using Weather Information If you enter your ZIP Code or City at the top of the weather presentation, it will give you weather for your area. Or, you can enter your destination ZIP Code or City.
Click on the "LOCAL RADAR" button to see whether or not there are thunder- Turbulence, though it may cause anxiety, does not mean anything is wrong. Turbulence does not mean danger. The plane can handle far more turbulence than Mother Nature can dish out. Though flying in turbulence is safe, it doesn't feel safe. And here is where the SOAR programs come in. We can help you feel as safe when you fly as you actually are. You can see these programs at www.fearofflying.com/store. |
