First Read the Book ..... You will find a complete review of the book at a different location in this web site. Divided into twelve easy-to-learn lessons, reading the book first will help lay the ground work for viewing the two hour virtual flight video included in this package. If you read the book thoroughly, and learn all that is asked of you, the video will be most meaningful. After you have completed the book and the video, a final examination will tell you how prepared you are to attempt a short flight. A high grade on the examination signals readiness, a low grade reflects the need for more study. Individuals with very high levels of fear, or multiple anxiety symptoms, may want to consult a professional therapist while engaged in this process. The book makes clear where it may be necessary to consult a professional. If you take the book to your meeting with the professional, you will find that most can be quite helpful with the implementation of the lessons. You will also have the additional benefit of the "two heads are better than one" philosophy of problem solving.
Then watch the Video ....
The video - Flight Safety, the Safety of Flight and Virtual Flight, was designed specifically for the fearful flyer. Before the actual flight, Dr. Tomaro presents the case for the safety procedures practiced by the aviation community. In classroom lecture format, with illustrations, Dr. Tomaro reviews the safety procedures practiced by aviation in the areas of Standards for: Pilots, Airplanes, Airports, and Airspace. After reviewing the essential safety practices, Dr. Tomaro uses transportation accident data to show just how these procedures work in the industry. The demonstration of the Safety of Flight is truly dramatic!
Dr. Tomaro then takes it a step farther in his lecture titled "Coping with 'what if'". You will find that he develops a compelling argument for the value of overcoming the fear of flying even if the worst (being killed in an airplane crash) should occur. To our knowledge, this is the only program that doesn't try to sugar-coat flight safety, but that still convincingly argues for the value of overcoming one's fear of flying. After this lecture, it's time to go flying with "the doctor".
The video first provides instructions on how to achieve the maximum information and therapeutic benefit. Research presented at Airborne 2000 has shown that you may achieve some anxiety reduction if you can immerse yourself in the video. Once the actual in-flight video begins, this is what you will see and hear during the next hour.
Then take the "Final".....
The final examination included with this package will tell you if you have mastered the material enough to move to an attempted flight in an aircraft. You'll need an "A" on the final in order to get our "two thumbs up" to go to the airport. The good news is, you get to take it as often as necessary to get your "A". It is our personal belief that "as long as you never stop trying, one day, you'll find yourself flying."
