If, like me, you break into a cold sweat at the very thought of going within fifty feet of an aeroplane, and have acquired a wide experience of holidays in the UK and France rather than face the trauma, this book is definitely for you!!
A spin-off from the highly successful course of the same name, the book is written in a down to earth and very readable style, and without patronising the reader it uses sufficient technical detail and explanation to inspire confidence (did you know how many back up computers they have on an aircraft? Why lift really won't let it just fall out of the sky?) and goes a long way towards dispelling the myths and irrational fears that inspire the nightmares of us nervous passengers. I'm taking my first flight abroad in over twenty years in a couple of days' time and reading and re-reading the information contained in '101 Questions' is proving invaluable in enabling me to approach the experience in a positive frame of mind!

I have a fear of flying, obviously,and I have tried everything. I went on the course last October in Southampton and bought the book there. I have been to different places around the world from the States to NZ and it has been awful. I don't sleep, eat move in case this makes the plane crash. I'd had enough.
I thought, at the time, the course was OK and I brought the book. Didn't think it had made a difference. Went to Heathrow a couple of weeks later to go back to NZ. Bit nervous but was perfectly fine on the plane! It was AMAZING it answers the questions in a comprehensive way, doesn't patronise and was completlty honest.
It takes you through all steps i.e. what happens at the air port, sounds on the plane, take off. My partner was made up because we could have a conversation. It was my Bible and I am not exagerating. I lent it to my Auntie and she had a good flight for the first time. It is more of those things that you think "that was no good, didn't work for me" Trust me it does when you are on that plane.
If you are scared of Flying,BUY IT, you will not regret it at all.
