[quote=Anonymous]For me flying is a lot like going to the dentist, I am so glad when I walk out of there with my feet on the ground. But I've gotten a lot better. 1. I finally figured out that planes are not going to just drop out of the sky (I mean, not without some kind of nose dive disaster). Think about paper airplanes, they keep going for a ways. 2. Turbulence is like being on a boat going fast over waves on a lake, the lake holds the boat up. 3. This will sound very strange, but the first time I flew after 9/11 was to DC (I live in flyover land). I had a Vanity Fair magazine that had a very long piece about the attacks. Somehow reading about the absolute worst that could happen made my ride seem like no big deal. I've never been as scared since that flight. 4. A small bottle of wine doesn't hurt. [/quote]
