I have to say I've found the positive feedback and the fact that everyone seems to "suffer" the same feelings really has put my worries to bed.
In everyday situations I'm the kind of guy who prefers to listen than talk, who will have a good idea in my head but won't say it in a group of strangers in case someone shoots it down - you see where I'm going with this? I think confidence or lack thereof plays an important part of how nervousness/accepting of your abilities as quite good has a major factor in the thought process behind my original question.
Since posting the first question I have managed to go flying three times for an hour a time and both have been really fun. I think the key here is definitely currency.
