Nervous Flyers...?
Everyone knows how nervous some 'first flight' passengers can be... And although the pilot feels confident about flying (and has the experience), it means nothing to the passenger... And they don't like the thought of being in a 'little tin flying machine' thousands of feet in the air... although once they're hooked, they're hooked...
The problem is how to 'convince' them to get into the plane to begin with...
Any good techniques???

Sunfish is probably closer to the mark than he thinks!!
'But seriously folks...' I once heard that Qantas occasionally runs a course for those who have a fear of flying. I'm not sure about the details ie free or costs involved etc but apparently the success rate in curing any fear(s) of flying are somewhere near 100%.
Whom one should contact etc; sorry but no idea.
You only live twice. Once when
you're born. Once when
you've looked death in the face.
