AND

Think about this one -

What about the heroic pilot who brought his airliner down in the Hudson River in New York in Januuary 2009?

No casualties - in fact he phoned his wife to say there had been a delay, and he would be home a little late?

Fear of flying?

You need have no fear at all.

To stand even a remote chance of being in an aircraft accident you would have to fly every day for -

YES - 22,000!

Does the above knowledge ease your concerns just a little? Go on - get clicking, ease them some more!

What you need to remember is that , when you are in an aeroplane, you are in the hands of true professionals. Compare this with your situation whilst driving your car - You may be a very very careful and accomplished driver, but what about all the other motorists? They don't have professional safeguards built into their driving techniques.

But, when you are in an airliner, going thousands of miles, even at an altitude of over 30,000 feet, you have the peace of mind of knowing that there is an organisation called "Air Traffic Control" on your side. But not just on your side - on everybody's side.

The people who are members of that body are, to say the least, complete professionals, whose purpose is to look after you, and all the other people on your flight, and every other flight within their territory.

So, why not grasp the nettle? On the law of averages - you'll be OK for 22,000 years. You may be a bit grey by then, but you'll still be here!

So - please enjoy our web site, and then, buy the book - it's not expensive, and its contents will go a long way to easing, or curing your problem.

That's why you are reading this page - because you want a solution. You have found it!

Here is a report on this book from AIRFRAID - a well known critic of books on this topic -

Tug’s inspiration for writing his book stemmed from the constant questions he was asked by other passengers on airliners whenever they found out that he was a pilot. The usual questions were, “Is it safe?” “What keeps the aeroplane up?” “What’s that noise?” and “Why do we get turbulence?” Unfortunately all the books currently available explain these things in such a technical way, that they tend to bamboozle the average reader. Tug’s approach to this is much more relaxed, almost as if you can imagine him talking directly to you whilst sitting on the aeroplane.

The book is written in a humorous conversational style in order to relax the reader such that they enjoy the whole flying experience. There are a number of simple diagrams to help explain the mildly complicated bits and Tug draws on his vast experience as a pilot to do this. Topics that are covered include take off, approach and landing, how aeroplanes fly, the weather (including the dreaded turbulence) and safety as well as a whole host of other subjects.
