If you are anxious about flying it is important to avoid  situations that will make you more anxious and worried than you are already. There is a substantial body of evidence that shows that anyone with a fear of flying will have that fear made worse by looking at media reports of anything to do with aviation and air travel but in particular air crashes, incidents, potential disasters  and so on.

DO NOT READ  PRESS REPORTS

AVOID AIR CRASH INVESTIGATOR PROGRAMS

IGNORE THE MEDIA

Here are words which the press use but are not used in aviation circles.

Plummet

Air pockets

Near Miss

Aborted Landing

Point of No Return

Dangerous Airports

If you want me explain  what is meant by reports that you have seen please send them to me for clarification.
