    Watching your videos gives me goose bumps and actually makes me cry at times because I've had a fear of flying my entire life. I do fly but not often and when I do I have anxiety for a week before leaving and have to take anti-anxiety medication on the flight. It has really limited my ability to see more of the world, which is sad. Seeing you fly with such a calm demeanor seems so courageous and brave to me and I'm sure it must be such an amazing passion. I love your videos.

    • @lovePaula07
      @lovePaula07 2 роки тому +43

      Have the same fear. I force myself to take trips and just book the flight. I always tell myself there are hundreds of planes that take off in a day in the US and nothing happens to those flights. My flight will be just fine. even during occasional turbulence in which I do freak out, We’ve landed ok. Every single time. Good luck to you, you got this!

    • @sagbeach1
      @sagbeach1 2 роки тому +19

      I am w you both. I have very bad anxiety w anything to do w flying on a plane. It limits me from going places but I do go down to Florida occasionally. I am a wreck a week before flight and they pretty anxious for return. Sometimes it ruins my trip all together, which is pretty sad as well. I don’t like heights at all which is part of the problem. I take anti anxiety med and it helps a little.

I literally yelled we gonna all die flying from Africa one time and had to be subdued refused to get on the plane from London to philly. Now I am a travel nurse one night I dreamt that I had such a smooth flight and was so happy and I kid you not the fear went poof just like that it's crazy. Now that I fly more than. Once a month I am used to It. My dad always says your chances of dying in a car crush are higher than flying until working ICU I didn't comprehend. Seeing my MVA patients I am like yep I think driving is worse 😅

    • @MAYBEE90

      And I’m the opposite, I absolutely love flying. My uncle is a pilot, and so is one of my exes, so I’ve gotten to do flight simulations in their training center, which feels so realistic!!
      I fly often and whenever I’m not in a plane, I miss it. I love the initial ascent into the sky, feels like a rollercoaster to me. I love the turbulence, the bumpier the better! It helps knowing the turbulence is not dangerous to the plane, as long as you are buckled in your seat, you’ll be safe.
      I’m sorry for people who have anxiety flying, I have a similar anxiety when it comes to choppy waters. I hate being in a small boat in the middle of the ocean, that’s my biggest fear.

    30+ years as ATC @ ZNY, ZDC, ZMA, ZAU, ERI, PBI, RSW and I never tire of these piloting videos. Thanks to all those professional pilots that gave me a cockpit ride over the years! I learned a tremendous amount during those flight hours for sure. Made me a better controller and a better instructor to the young folks coming up. I always wanted to fly myself, but other than a few private pilot hours, life seemed to always get in the damn way! 58 Now, but a man can dream!

    This gave me a flashback to the first time I flew in '69. It was a beautiful spring day when we took off, but halfway to our destination, we flew straight into a bad thunderstorm. The plane went dark and the turbulence was horrifying. I've flown a few times since then, but could never relax enough to enjoy it. However, flying into NYC was thrilling! Watching this I got dizzy and nauseated, but you did a great job!

    Hi Max. When I flew for NetJets, I was based in BDL which was great as I live in CT. That said, I would always begin my week begging the scheduler to send me west. It was so much better flying out west versus what we called the ‘Northeast Shuffle’. Out west, it was fewer flights, longer legs, and new, cool things to see. Now, I miss it all though, and I would very much enjoy a day with a modern jet doing the ‘Northeast Shuffle’. Something like IAD > ACK > BOS > TEB (pick up my Rudy’s chix burrito from the fridge), and end the day with a flight to CYYG.
