Description

A course to help overcome your fear of flying!

The purpose of this Fear Of Flying Course is to give more information about what happens during air flight, not in a group as with other course providers but one-to-one.

You will have an initial briefing of 60 minutes and then a practical session in the B737 NG Full Motion Flight Simulator for a further 60 minutes for one person and 120 minutes for a two person course.

You are able to bring someone with you for support who is not considered a student. If you decide to share your classroom time with someone else and they wish to be a student also, as up to two people can be part of the course … we would suggest only doing so if you both have similar fears. An additional 30 minutes is available in case your fears differ slightly.

You not only learn what happens every single flight by way of safety checks and the day to day of actual cockpit operation, but you will also experience the sensation of flight without ever leaving the ground!

We aim to put you at ease with aspects of flight that are routine and normal for regular air travellers whether they be the pilot or the passenger.

What can I expect from the Fear Of Flying Course?

You will start off your Fear Of Flying Course being led to the briefing room. There are a number of rooms each with comfortable surroundings.
During this time your instructor, who will be with every step of the way, will give you a run down of a normal fear of flight course and the aspects that you may want to run through.
Of course, if there are areas that you would like to cover in particular, here’s your chance to shape the Fear Of Flying Course to best suit you and your needs.
You will spend 60 minutes speaking about what leaves you specifically unsure about air travel. We want to be able to best serve you and have the course be as useful to you as possible.
Your instructor will also talk about the aircraft, aviation and the science involved in what is THE safest mode of transport.
Next you will be led to the B737 NG full motion flight simulator.
On stepping into the replica cockpit you may be surprised at how complicated it is. This is what pilots train in for real so it is an exact copy of what you would find if you were to step into the actual aircraft cockpit. You are welcome to have a look around first but when settled your instructor will begin start-up procedures.
You are welcome to take a seat in the co-pilot's chair to see all of the instructor's movements around the cockpit but you may also want to take a seat behind them for a more realistic experience as a passenger.
You will then experience a flight of up to 60 minutes (one person) or 120 minutes (two people). We urge you to ask questions, talk to your flight instructor and let them know if you feel uneasy. It is now that various types of weather conditions can be tried if you are feeling comfortable to do so.
The time in the simulator is yours, so you can choose if you want to stay a passenger or jump in front of the controls and try it out for yourself. You may find it gives a better understanding if you are more practically minded.
Once your time in the simulator finishes you will be back in the de-briefing room for up to 30 minutes to talk about the experience. How did you feel? Did you feel you overcame any fear even though you didn't really leave the ground?
This chat afterwards is an opportunity to ask questions in person; however, our instructors do keep in touch. We have a great track record of helping people as you will see from the messages we received below.
As part of the service our instructors also offer support via phone or text, up until your flight to ensure that any fears are discussed and hopefully quashed.

Why choose Full Motion Experience?

Our instructors are all fully qualified commercial and simulator pilots. They bring to you a wealth of knowledge and experience, combined 30 years and over 45,000 hours of flight time in the air.

Flying in one of these full motion flight simulators is as close as you can get to the feel of being in the actual aircraft. Yes, it is more expensive than a fixed base flight simulator but you will also find that it is a completely different experience.

It really is incomparable when you walk up to the simulator, close the door and the steps are retracted to allow the fully hydraulic driven simulator it’s 6 degrees of freedom.

As far as we know, for simulators of this calibre, we are the most reasonable by way of pricing – up to a 20% saving . This isn’t to say that we lack in service, we just believe that overcoming your fears doesn’t need to be as expensive as other places that may be offering it.

Quadrant Systems have given special permission to use this £15 million flight simulator, usually reserved for commercial and military pilot training. We are incredibly pleased to be able to offer experiences in these amazing pieces of flight training. Each simulator is given a rating (Level D) which allows for it to be used for training professional pilots. These simulators are able to simulate all aircraft systems that are accessible from the flight deck which is critical to training … you wouldn’t want a new pilot to practice 10,000ft above your house would you?

Please note – The Fear Of Flying Course will focus on the practical elements of aircraft and flight.

It is NOT to be considered a replacement for psychological or medical treatment. If you believe you would benefit from these methods we urge you to also look into them.
