Resurrecting this a little bit, to add my name to the "nervous flyer" list. I'm better than I was, because I did something that, even a good few months after the fact, I still think is crazy.
I made a film about light aircraft and GA flying. I thought that if I knew more about flying, and met people who do it purely for fun, I wouldn't be as nervous on a large passenger aircraft.
It worked. I still don't like turbulence (makes me feel sick, and do feel a little bit out of control) and I'm always nervous before a flight, but I'm definitely better than I was
