                              I don't like flying, but I'm not afraid.
                              I got a headache most of the times I flew. That's why I don't like it.
                              I will try some painkillers next time (which I always forget to take). A flight of more than 12 hours awaits me at the end of the month.

                                  Correct, but still a lot of people out there would think nothing of getting in their car and driving at 70 mph for 5, 10, 40 or 50 hours instead of flying there in 2-4 hours, in spite of statistics saying that the likelihood of getting injured or killed in the car is far greater than that of air travel.

                                  Then some will trot out the "yeah but I'm in control of the car" argument. Pure bunk. You're not in control of the 17 million other cars on the road. Fact is flying is safer, period.

                                                              I'm so scared of flying that I have turned down several companies in this business and paid vacations on the US and Canada.

We couldn't land with the wind blowing the way it was coming in normally so we had to fly several miles out over the ocean to turn around for the landing. It was scary but still a total adrenaline rush

What about all the millions of people who fly several hours every day for business? Do some of you even know how many flights there are every day, and how many people are on those flights? Yet you hardly ever heard of a plane going down, and when you do it's a big deal... because it is a rare occurance.

                                                                                                                      In the time I took to type this, 1000+ cars crashed, several hundred people died. But you go with your argument. :D

                                                                                                                              Take off is risky too, but somewhat less so.

                                                                                                                              Cruising on a commercial jetliner is so safe these days that about the only thing one has to worry about during that part of the flight is the extremely remote possibility of being shot down by the government*.

                                                                                                                              * I say government, because 1. there have been numerous close calls (and some actual shootdowns abroad) over the years, and 2. rocket launchers, such as terror groups have, don't have the precision / range to reach an airliner 5+ miles (in reality the range would have be even further yet adjusting for angle) above the ground.

                                                                                                                              Ron

It's almost to the point where he can't fly at all. As it is, he has to take heavy sedatives just to walk onto the plane. It worries me because his job pretty much depends on his ability to travel, plus I don't see him as often.

Lady, what's wrong? .. look at all the fluffy clouds.

                                                                                                                                                                                  So now when ever I'm scared I can hear that lil voice in my head ... look at the clouds.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Now I don't fly, cause it's annoying, not scary.

Not a fan of take offs and landings either, but I would never miss a trip because of flying. Actually I flew many small Cesnas and was the pilot of many gliders and I absolutely loved every second of flying like that.

I guess it's the whole "not being in control" thing is what makes me feel uncomfortable during some flights.
