Flying without fear training Ostend

You would like to book that one flying holiday or visit family abroad. But because you have to get on a plane, you don't book that trip. For example, you are afraid of turbulence or of crashing. Or perhaps you start to feel anxious at the idea of being locked up in an aeroplane.

Fear of flying is caused by unpleasant experiences, for example. Sometimes it is transmitted, often unconsciously, by people in the immediate vicinity. As many as 35 out of 100 people develop a fear of flying sooner or later. So it is actually very common.

Would you like to look forward to a flight again? You too can overcome your fear of flying and we would like to help you do so.

Training content

Fear of flying differs enormously per person. That is why the programme is tailored to what you need. Conquering a fear of flying can be scary and confrontational. Our specialists have experience with this and will guide you through the process step by step. You follow the programme at a pace that you feel comfortable with. The training takes approximately 2 hours.

You always start outside the simulator with a conversation with our specialist, just at the table. During a cup of coffee, tea or soft drink, we determine what exactly your fear is. Then, later in the training, we focus on the parts that are relevant to you.

Then the instructor gives a short explanation of what the pilots do in the air.

When you are ready, you take place in the simulator together with our specialist. Nothing happens yet, just sit down and take in the impressions of the cockpit. The instructor will give you more information and explanations about flying.

Full-motion simulator

The next step is to fly the simulator. We start quietly and gradually build up to it. We focus on the points that are difficult for you. For example, we can fly with turbulence or poor visibility. The instructor will go through various scenarios with you and explain how things work in the cockpit. Because it is a full motion simulator, you feel everything just like 'in real life'.

The simulator is an exact replica of an Airbus A320 cockpit. All buttons and instruments work like in real life. The simulator moves while flying and is therefore indistinguishable from the real thing. This gives you the feeling that you are flying, but it is a lot less exciting.

Location

This training is given in Ostend, a town on the west coast of Belgium.
